Ghost-like tribute to dead son in wedding photo

An 8-year-boy who lost his life to leukemia six months ago was "reunited" with his family in a digitally enhanced wedding photo that brought tears to the eyes of some of her Facebook friends.
A faint, almost ghost-like image of Lake Bozman was superimposed on a wedding photo of Anna Bozman Thompson and her family. The photo, shared on Facebook, prompted more than 3,000 likes and about 300 comments, many offering their love and prayers.

"I do know that ️Lake has been watching over us especially when we got married," Thompson wrote. "He made sure that it would be a day that none of us would forget. Although I felt his presence that day and I was actually happy, it was almost unbearable to take family pictures without him."
