On a cold morning, mourners gathered for the funeral of six-year-old Emily, who had left the world too soon. Her parents stood beside her coffin, heartbroken, wondering how to continue without their beloved daughter. Emily was known for her kindness and cheer, and her passing deeply affected her family and community.
As the priest began the service, something strange occurred—a large crow entered the church and landed on Emily’s coffin. Its shiny eyes captivated the mourners as it sat still, bowing its head as if paying respect to the little girl. The room fell silent, and the crow eventually spread its wings and flew away, leaving no sound behind.
The elderly in attendance recalled old beliefs that crows were messengers for souls, and in that moment, the grieving parents felt their daughter’s spirit was truly there. Emily’s mother tearfully turned to her husband, saying, “This was her way to say goodbye.” The crow’s visit gave them the closure they needed, a sign their daughter was watching over them.
