Leave a tributeIt is still unbelievable to me that you are gone. You are (and will continue to be) a very bright light. Your healing presence, all that you taught, your sense of humor and your sweetness touched so many lives including my own. Thank you for your love, your presence, all that you gave and taught us. You are deeply missed.
May we go to the places that scare us.
May we lead the life of a warrior.”
― Pema Chödrön
Dear Michael- Thank you eternally for your compassion, inspiration, and wisdom. You offered me courage, insight, self-love, and the confidence to continue on my healing path so that i might be of service to others. Thank you for being a compassionate warrior for the benefit of us all. We shall miss your bright smile and kind heart...
Your still here with me. I think about you everyday and all the lives you have affected a positive way. You will never be forgotten. Im going be everything I can be because of you; you taught me to never be afarid of who I am and what I want to do; happniess is the greatest accomplishment in life. Your memories will always keep you alive. I still can't believe your physically not here to ground me and hug me when I need it the most but I can sense you all the time around me. The other day I found this as a bookmark in one of your books and I know this is true now more than ever for me and you:
Footprints
One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the sky flash scenes from his life. For each scene he noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one belong to him, and the other belong to the Lord.
When the last scene of his life flash before him, he looked back at the footprints in the sand. He noticed that many times along the path of his life there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed that it happened at the very lowest and saddest times in his life.
This really bothered him and he questioned the Lord about it.
'Lord you said that once I decided to follow You, You'd walk with me all the way. But I have noticed that during the most troublesome times in my life, there is only one set of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed You most You would leave me.'
The Lord replied, 'My son, My precious child, I love you and I would never leave you. During your times of trial and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints it was then that I was carrying you.'

Love you Dad.
Zena
As I understand the cycle of life, I am certain that you will give me an opportunity to cherish your acquaintance once again. RIP
You will be truly missed. Thank you for being such a great father to your two daughters, husband to your kind wife, and an overall positive impact in our world. You will always be remembered and never forgotten. I promise to always take care of Zena as well, and to be there for your family in times of need. Thank you for letting me get to know you and for sharing your love to everyone. You will always be in our hearts and in our memories.
So now you are energetically at a vantage point that can oversee far more vast expanses.. and we all trust that you are shining down on us with your brilliant light and love. Thank you for everything!!!
I wish I had the chance to get to know you on a more personal level. You were an amazing father to my best friend, a loving husband, and a great friend and mentor to so many people. I am so incredibly saddened by your passing. Although I didn't know you well personally, I can only think you for being a perfect father to my best friend. You raised a beautiful, intelligent, bright soul and showed her the true meaning of love. Thank you. Thank you for giving me my best friend. Thank you for raising her and teaching her about the world. Thank you for giving us Zena. It was you, Michael, who taught her how to be a respectable citizen and continuously showered her in love and protection. I could only wish for a father like you. And one day when I am a father, I hope to be just like you Michael. You were perfect for your family. Thank you for being an ideal role model - and thank you for sharing your life with me. I could never thank you enough. I love your family with all my heart. I promise you I'll take care of Zena and watch over her, and I know you won't be far away guiding us. May you rest forever in peace.
Love always,
Hudson
Sending love and healing to Francesca and family.
You were a radiant individual and always seemed to bring positive energy to every setting. I only knew you for a short time, but you made an impact on my life nonetheless. I'm grateful to have known you and even though you have moved on to the next journey, you will always be remembered.
My thoughts are with you and your beautiful family. Rest in Peace Michael. All Good Things
Thank You for Sharing Your Love & Light With Us and the World!
And Much Love to Francesca and the girls.

No one of us will ever be lost.
Michael McCartney's words, energy, and guidance live in each student who had the opportunity to work with him. His resonant spirit shines in and for his beloved family most of all.
Spirit is eternal; love can only attract its own and then infinitely expand. Sending Francesca, Zoe, and Zena love and grace and immense appreciation. Anything you need, and we are here for you. ♡
A phrase often used in the world of athletics is " ....he( she) made everyone around them better." I can think of no better way to express my feelings about the impact you made on so many of us. For over 20 years, I have had the profound privilege of working with you on so many different projects. Your critical thinking, your ability to express complex ideas simply, and your ability to execute a plan has had such an impact on so many businesses. But it was your love, devotion, and pride for your wife and daughters the set a standard that I could only hope to aspire to. You will be sorely missed my friend. " All good things"!
My love and thoughts to Francesca and family.
My heartfelt love to Francesca.
It was such a shock to learn of your passing and my heart breaks for your beautiful family. Every time I think of you, I see your mischievous smile and can still hear how you were gently teasing me when I needed to go do something challenging. You were an anchor in my life at moments where I really needed one. I will miss your guidance my friend and may you travel in peace.
You were the best man, father and person anyone had the pleasure of knowing. I know where-ever you are now you are holding a special space for me and you to be together forever. You are my inspiration, light and love. You are the only person I have ever met to never judge anyone. You truly love me unconditionally. You have completed your lived work by helping others and everyday I strive to do the same. Thank you for everything you gave the world. Your always in my heart and remember... "no one will ever love the way I love you."
I will never let you go daddy
Sincerely,
'Mini Mike' aka Zena McCartney Daughter to Michael McCartney
The special light of a Michael McCartney healing, teaching, or just conversation, is one of my favorite things. (Why do we refer to you in the 3rd person in conversation with you? Because the size of your light needs 3 persons to address!).
The way you shine your light Michael brings out the best in each person. You see the best, you see the love, and you hold that frequency, hold that space for us to fill out. Your love, wisdom, patience, acceptance and humor is the perfect place for all to grow and find self-love, self-acceptance and the ability to laugh at ourselves on our journey. You cared for me, my husband and my son, bringing us inestimable relief and clarity on our journeys, and modeling for our intuitive 10-year-old son what it means to be a powerful, resplendent intuitive man. We talked clairaudience, hearing the deep zen monk hum of planet earth together, clairvoyance, seeing the abstract colors and shapes of my aura and questions together, and clairsentience, trading stories of our feeling journey, missing fingers and lessons and difficult mothers and moments. Nothing was too dark or deep in that expansive, bright container. It is a delight to have crossed paths. I will look for you in spirit now, from your place of bliss and one-ness.
As shocking as transition is, I know that no one was better prepared to have transitioned out of the body, so I will wish you safe journeys, knowing that you are safe, cherished and softly carried by your inner guidance to an even brighter expansion and expression of your brilliant light. You will certainly be forever missed and forever remembered.
With good thoughts and love to you and your family,
Elizabeth
I hear your chuckle and feel compassion & love. Sending it out and back again, just as you taught me that first time when I ask, how do I feel compassion?. Thank you for all the lessons.:"Live with humor and neutrality", "Joy", "Love and Compassion are neutral", "Fear is out of present time". I love you and miss you, Mightly Mighty Eagle.
My Saturdays will never be the same without your beaming smile, infectious laughter, bright clothing and infinite wisdom. I see you now having tea in tennis shoes with the angels laughing in blissful delight. I will miss you and am sending a giant package of love to you in the heavens.
With love,
Tiffany Bass Bukow
You were a Great Man living in Marin County.
I was touched in ways unknown until now, and realize there is more to come. Rest well and I hope to cross paths again.
Much respect and Love to you and your family.

Francesca and family: Prayers for authentic expression of any and all feelings at this time. You are surrounded in love and care from your communities. How incredible that he is free from form... And still for beloveds left behind, it takes time to get used to that form not being there all the time. Blessings and love to you on this journey of transition in your family.
For Francesca and family, my heart goes out to you and am sending you love and light.
You were my mentor and my friend. You saw something in me when we first met and you challenged me to be me. I flourished under your leadership. We accomplished so much working with each other and kept pushing the boundaries on what was doable. Your friendship inspired me to never accept being mediocre. You and I use to talk about being the pebble as opposed to be the ripple effect. We spoke last week and your sincerity and positive attitude never wavered. You never passed judgment on me or anyone but always gave light when everyone else saw darkness. I will miss you and our friendship but will continue to reflect on the memories and life lessons you have given me. Be well my friend is what you used to tell me when we'd end our chats and so its my turn to tell you...Be well my friend. I will forever miss you.
Love,
Jon Wong, your student, your apprentice, your friend.

There isn't a day that goes by where I don't use something I learned from you and Francesca. Thank you and thank you to those who continue contributing. Love doesn't fade with time. Colors in golden globes, neutrality and double/triple/quadruple grounding! xx
My Cousins meeting with Michael
While Yvonne is also an Intuitive, she is more subdued than myself and a little bit cynical.
Last week she and I were discussing some pivotal moment in our lives and she brought up her session with Michael. Yvonne had lost her job but was clear about what she wanted moving forward. Michael told Yvonne why she wanted a certain job, how long it would take her to get the job and that it would be exactly what needed.
It was about 15 months before she got a job. When it manifested, she wasn’t even looking for it. A series of synchronicities were in place creating the manifestation of the perfect job! Benefits from her military life made the job financially exceptional!
She has retired now and is loving it. She states that “I love the fact that Michael helped me be okay with waiting for things to fall into place, before and after the job”.
Michael’s reading had a huge impact on Yvonne and I was surprised by how receptive she was to the session.
I know in the soul that Michael is an Ascended Master and looks out for the Academy family!
