You will be interested in this story about Padre Pio (Saint Pio of Pietrelcina):

“Years ago I read a biography of Saint Pio, who occasionally was given the gift of knowing the fate of deceased souls. Therein was recounted the true story of a woman who came to him terrified that her late husband was sent to hell after he committed suicide by jumping off a bridge over a river. Padre Pio advised her to keep praying for her husband’s soul because the man was in purgatory, having repented and asked for God’s Mercy just before he hit the water!”

I also saw that story many years ago. The widow believed him and so was comforted, because she hadn’t told Padre Pio how her husband had died.

This sounds interesting; since the GWT judgement hasn't occurred yet.

So; who did?
