I was driving the company truck to check areas as a Security Officer on graveyard shift when I heard this voice repeatedly "Pay Attention!"  At first I dismissed it thinking my mind was playing tricks on me.. after all it was night time and I have always been a little weary of the dark.  But the voice kept insisting... several times I heard "Pay Attention!".  I looked around and couldn't see anything. The whole time I felt like I had a power-search going through my body, sometimes a little stronger, sometimes real weak.  Then I parked my vehicle to check a gate when I saw the vision. 

My little grandma had been dead for quite a few years, but here she was hovering over me and telling me "Pay attention!".  Then my not-dead grandma (who lived in Germany) appeared in my vision  I heard her say "Tschoe Monische" (Bye Monika - and only my grandma used this nickname).  Then the vision disappeared.  I was left feeling scared.  I talked to my supervisor at the time who I knew believed in ghosts and she advised me to call my Mom to see if my grandma was ok after I got home from work, which I did... my Mom told me she was all right and in good spirits, actually doing a little better than she had been.  Fast Forward to the 12th of November.  My Mom called me and notified me that my grandma had past on.
