They had put Grandma's rocker in the family room, and even when it was empty, that chair rocked back and forth a mile a minute.

I reassured the woman that I believed her grandmother had crossed over into the Light and was fine, although it was possible that she just stopped by to visit from time to time. — Mary Ann Winkowski
