I believe I had that same dream twice.Death Angel is an American thrash metal band from Daly City, California, initially active from 1982 to 1991 and again since 2001. I remember crying in my dream and woke up sobbing. He had an angelic glow around him as if he were walking in a very bright light. He was walking down a street I had been down that very week.

I was very close to him and still grieve for him. The 2nd time I dreamed of an angel was shortly after my father died. I had a dream about a cherub too, it was flying upwards and I believe it may be the child my mother lost when she was few weeks pregnant or the baby girl that drowned in the river at the back of our house that is watching over me :) but I do believe in angels in reality because they saved us from many mishaps we already had. I had a dream last night i had black angel wings and was flying to help these people i fixed some problems then another angel came with black wings and i tryed to fly off in to the sky and the angel grabbed me by my leg and wouldnt let me go i woke up went to stand up and felt very weak
