    I am looking through some stuff in a large wooden chest. My father-in-law has something hidden but I can't find it. I come down from the attic and tell him that he did a good job hiding it because I can't seem to find it. Looking at him it dawns on me that I am dreaming because he has recently passed away in waking life. There are many emotions flowing through me and I telling about something I know about that I can't mention here. He's about to lose his mind that I know what I know so I then tell him that he's dead. I tell him all I know about his death. I tell him its ok. He doesn't take it very well. He seems surprised by it. I tell him that I love him and I'm sorry that I never told him that. I tell him that I miss him so much and that I am sorry he's gone. I lose the dream as it fades away and I wake up.

    The next night my father in law is going on about some kind of special bucket to some person. I walk up to him and he sees me. It's like he knows now and he says "Hey buddy!" with so much love and compassion. Everything comes flooding back and I know I am dreaming. Unfortunately I wake up almost immediately.

      I've encountered deceased relatives in lucid dreams before; my grandmother has shown up several times in lucid dreams over the years when she passed away right around the time that I started lucid dreaming. My grandmother seemed to be aware that she was dead and either acknowledge that she wasn't really real and just an aspect of my subconscious or attempt to convince me that she was visiting me from the afterlife; something that I don't personally believe in. I don't think I've ever had such an emotional experience with someone who had passed though.

      It's an interesting thing. I have had this experience before with much the same situation you described but it was super emotional then as well lol. I have entertained the idea that it was the persons spirit visiting me but, I suspect it's more plausible that it's just my confused dreaming mind trying to deal with the shock of seeing someone who has so recently passed away. I'm not religious in any way these days or give much credit to the afterlife myself.
