Here's another one. I taught at a high school in the next county for several years and heard a couple of years ago that this really gung-ho teacher and counselor had died. She loved that school--would work late, practically lived there!
So I told a teacher from that county that I was sad that Mrs. Silvers had died and she said, "Umm, there have been some sightings lately." It seems that the new janitor, who was autistic, had been working very late and he commented to the principal that if that silver-haired teacher didn't quit staying so late, he was never going to get her room cleaned. On his way out, he pointed to a picture of Mrs. Silvers with the drama team and said, "Oh, there she is."
There is no way that this guy was capable of making this up. He didn't know Mrs. Silvers nor would he have known she was dead.
