Friends, it seems Heaven is a lot closer then we thought. Ever since Ajay passed away, I have been seeing his avatar “like” my “About” page. At first it really upset me, so I went to his blog and asked whoever is doing this to please stop. Evidently no one in Ajay’s family is doing this, because the continued “likes” have continued.
Is anyone else besides me getting likes from Ajay, our beloved friend who is now walking much Higher Ground? Since seeing is believing, I captured three screens, the first one of Ajay’s “like” of my “About” page for at least the 10th time, yet there was no date proving which day this was done. So I captured two comments, one above Ajay’s “like”, and one below, both showing the date and time they were written. Yesterday.
If no one from Ajay’s family is doing this, who is? Is this being computer generated, and if so, by whom? If that is a fact, how many of my “likes” are legit? Saying this, how many of any of our “likes” are legit?
If anyone has any answers, please do comment. And if anyone else is seeing Ajay’s avatar present day, show up, please comment as well. This is very puzzling, and downright troubling to me.
Below is the “proof”. See for yourself.

You know Amy, I think you should just receive these “likes” as an amazing gift. Whatever the cause of this like be – just think it’s a sign… you know, Ajay absolutely loved FLOWERS – I’m not surprised that, from where he is now, he still likes your post, and I’m sure he does. Maybe someone still manages his blog – Ilike to imagine he asks him or her to make such signs… have a nice week dear Amy (You know, in French Ami or Amie means friend, you have a wonderful first name mon amie… Amy!

At first it really was unsettling to see his avatar, Frederic, but I will see it the way you do, and just accept that Ajay is liking what I am doing. Thank you for the comment. I’ve has so many problems with WP lately I don’t know what to think anymore. I will look at this as a Gift. Thank you, friend! (smile) Yes I was aware of what ami means in French. It also means “Beloved”. (((HUGS))) Amy

Amy, funny you should mention this. I had a ‘like’ from Ajay too. It was on my about page – it was about 5 days or so, ago. I thought it was a little strange, seeing as he is no longer with us but who knows. Perhaps it’s a sign he is thinking about us all.
Hope all is okay 🙂 x

And here too, I’ve had so many glitches and probs with WP I honestly just didn’t know what to think. That’s why I put this post up. Now I don’t feel so alone in this. At least one other person, you, is experiencing this too. I wonder who else will step forth and say they as well are seeing Ajay’s avatar? I wonder. xx Amy

Hi Amy, I also experienced receiving likes from Ajay on one of my old post about Bali. It happened last week.

I’m sorry to say I don’t think I had any interaction with Ajay and I can certainly understand that this situation can be a little unsettling. If I may offer an explanation. I know this has happened to me on at least one occasion. Someone will like a post on my blog, but it would show another blogger’s stamp as if the other blogger had liked my post instead. WordPress error I guess? But odd nonetheless. I’m in no way minimizing whats happening and I hope you can find some peace in this situation. Lots of love and support ❤

Michelle, I am looking at this as Gift. I’ve been having so much trouble with my reader now, I cannot even get to 5 blogs without everything crashing. So, I am looking at this oddity as a sign that all will be OK and that I am LOVED and that Ajay, who LOVES flowers, is letting me know he still is. I’ve been so aggravated by one after another prob here, that I am just about to say this is not worth it. I should never have contacted Support. My problems have just worsened. *deep breath* Others are having the same probs with their reader so I know it is just not me. No plot here to shut me down. That won’t be possible. I’m here for as long as my heart tells me to stay!! (((HUGS))) Amy

I am not familiar with Ajay but I trend to agree with Maria. Ajay may have someone that knows about his blog and may have let the person get access to his account or even that person resets Ajay account knowing that Ajay passed away. The person continues to assume Ajay’s role.

But that is the funny thing, YellowCable. There are no new posts on his blog. And the only time I do see this avatar it is on my About page. When someone likes a post, in order to like it again, you have to unlike it, then like again. I’ve seen Ajay’s avatar at least 10 times on my About page. I don’t get this. But after this post, I am done “worrying about it” and just letting it go. It’s happening. It’s happening on other blogs too, just on the About page. Perhaps one day the mystery will be cleared up.
