In 1989 - when he was 38 - attended a convention of his church; on his way back home, his car collided with a big lorry, on a narrow bridge and he lost his consciousness of the earthly environment. He found himself in view of a big beautiful gate; many dead friends and relatives came to meet him, among whom his grandfather and two friends of his, who had died prematurely. They were happy and smiling: they welcomed him, embracing him and praising God. Don was feeling more alive and happy than he had ever been in all his earthly experience; he was no longer thinking of things and people he had left back; wherever he could look, he saw persons he loved and who loved him; they appeared in their aspect he remembered, but more beautiful and shining. A grand grandmother of his, whom he remembered bent, wrinkled and toothless, was now straight, had a smooth face and a beautiful smile.
