Both of the Moronis were doctors and stalwart anti-fascists, active in the Resistance Movement as dictator Benito Mussolini rose to power in their native Italy.
As Hitler and Mussolini gained more and more control in Europe, the Moroni family became proportionately involved in the effort to assist persecuted Jews, young Ginetta using a position as a junior clerk at Milan's City Hall to oversee the distribution of food and clothing to Jews who were forced into hiding.
Ginetta's efforts to aid the oppressed moved from the covert distribution of food, clothes, and pamphlets to that of courier for the Allies after her parents were seized by the government in 1943: her father was shot in a public execution, and her mother sent to Auschwitz, where she died within 6 months.

 Moroni as Angel and as Treasure Guardian - FARMS Review
Moroni would be more likely to show up in this context as an angel than as a treasure guardian.
He explains that Moroni's transition to an angel was less difficult having started as a human ghost because, as he puts it, "treasure guardians were almost always regarded as evil in the magic worldview, no matter what form they took.
As for early descriptions of Moroni as a "spirit," I feel that whether or not Moroni seemed to Joseph to have had a tangible body is less important than whether or not he was a messenger "of the Almighty." I view the question of whether Moroni was "luminous" in the same light.
