‘Six months before he died, my grand-father came to Australia to try to explain to me that he was dying. I was a young kid, very much into myself at the time. I was busking on the streets just to make enough money to pay my rent, There was this Japanese restaurant I’d always wanted to eat at but couldn’t afford, so I suggested we go there.’ It was an unfortunate choice. In Weans’ weakened condition, the smell of the rice and soya sauce brought back memories of the Second World War. ‘We couldn’t have the talk he wanted to,’ says Crowe. ‘The day he died, I was in the kitchen of a flat in Woollarah, (an eastern suburb of Sydney). ‘Suddenly a kookaburra bird flew in the window. It just looked at me. I knew my grandfather had died. I phoned home and my mother confirmed it. ‘I insisted the bird was my grandfather’s spirit, but my mom would have nothing of it.’ One day last year, Crowe had a dream in which he was holding his mother and she was crying. He phoned home immediately. ‘My mother said a woman who had worked closely with my grandfather had come to visit and, without prompting, had told her that on the day my grandfather died a bird had visited her as well. ‘Learning this had reduced my mother to tears.’ Crowe says he believes that ‘with all this talk of angels, maybe they are just birds sent to us by those who have crossed over.’ Tuesday, March 14, 2000
