Ecclesiastes 9:5 says that "the dead are conscious of nothing at all." They cannot harm or help us. Jesus and other Bible writers described death as a sleep-like state. They are completely unaware of their surroundings.

Well if they still exist, then I personally feel a continued existence would still be very much here, if another level/dimension, not some far off land in the clouds, and then maybe they can see or hear us still or when they want to.

Nope. "For the living are conscious that they will die; but as for the dead, they are conscious of nothing at all" (Ecclesiastes 9:5).

Absolutely. They don't see with physical eyes, they are in God's presence and have privy to know and see. All truths are revealed.

I hope they do. I know I miss my grandma a lot and I sure don't mind if she watches me from the beyond.

No, I don't believ in an afterlife, or spirits peering at you from the other side.

Nope. I believe to be absent from the body is to be with Jesus, or elsewhere.
