A WOMAN'S HUSBAND PASSED AWAY, BUT AT THE TIME OF HIS
DEATH (4 P.M.) HE TOLD HIS WIFE THAT HE WOULD ALWAYS
BE WITH HER. THE DAY AFTER HE DIED AT APPROXIMATELY
4 P.M. A LITTLE YELLOW BIRD APPEARED ON THE WINDOW
LEDGE IN HER ROOM AND TAPPED HIS BEAK AGAINST IT,
THEN WOULD FLY AWAY. THIS WENT ON FOR 36 DAYS UNTIL
THE WIFE HAD BEEN STRUCK AND KILLED BY A CAR.
