I asked my grandmother this question when I was about 10 years old. My interest had been piqued because my great aunt had just died. Gram said to me"It must be really great because no one ever comes back to tell us about it!" Gram was a very devoted Christian woman who entertained ideas f reincarnation. That was 48 years ago. He words have always stuck with me.
