His Mother's Face in the Orb?

 Robert Crookall's book Out of the Body Experiences is a fascinating account of highly unusual psychic experiences.  On page 107 we read this:

On the next page we read, "J. J. Morse  was told that 'a luminous sphere' left a body and 'gradually assumed the form of the person who had died.' ”
