Thinking of you Melissa... Have a wonderful journey ()
December 28, 2016
Mike,
I somehow missed this!!! I am stunned and so saddened. Just before I found this, I was lovingly tucking a few things into a basket Melissa gave me in thanks for driving her to Philomene's studio, it is a treasure, as is a scarf she gave me. I adored her and loved our shared time together. She was so brave and true. We lost track of each other to time, as happens with people we meet along the way, but she was never out of my heart. I hope you are healing and thriving. I know she was so devoted to you, and you to her.
Very Best,
Jane Booth

Mike - having worked with Melissa with the Center for Spirit at Work, I saw just a bit of how she worked to bring more light and healing into a hurting world. My thoughts and prayers are very much with you. I hope we can talk again at some upcoming event. Alan Harris

Melissa was a tremendous light to. I first met Melissa sitting across the table from her singing at the Casa in Brazil. We connected again at a John of God event in Toronto and Melissa decided that at some time we were twins sharing a crib together. We got together when she came to New Jersey for treatment. She decided that she would join my meditation group and participated long distance by phone. I will deeply miss her beautiful spirit.

Dear Michael, Thank you for contacting me. May her soul rest in deep Peace and may she be a Light to all of us on the other side of the veil. I knew Melissa from the Casa de Dom Inacio in Brazil. She was working very hard to make the best life she could here on this plane. She was so sensitive deeply intuitive, and in service. Blessings on her Soul

I met Melissa at an energy healing class in the early 1990's. We connected immediately as Pisces sometimes do. And, since we lived just blocks apart in NYC, I saw her regularly for energy healing. I looked forward to those spirit-healing sessions which were mystical, joyful, and awe inspiring. Even her cat participated! After she moved, we continued our journeys [though sporadically] by phone. They were equally powerful and inspiring. I miss her now but I know she will find a way to connect, and we will laugh again. Sending love and healing to Mike and her family. Rosalie (New York City)

Melissa was a wonderful healer and teacher, and she will be greatly missed. She was and always will be an inpiration concerning the healing power of a loving presence. My thoughts and prayers go out to her spouse and other loved ones.

I am saddened to hear of Melissa's passing. Melissa helped me understand myself and to look for who I was meant to be. I am eternally grateful for the spirit she shared. I remember a few funny sessions. There was a device that was to be activated- for some odd reason it did not.After a few minutes Melissa returned- she asked what had occurred and I shared with her the vision of the surgeon and nurses standing by ready to their work but they could not- was so funny. I believe we both had a good giggle. I remember another session where one of her cats decided they needed to help me heal- hilarious as I thought to interact with them and all I knew was how to interact with dogs- giggle again. I remember her trip to healing places - my dog Rowdy was sick so I sent his picture- he lived to be 13 1/2 and was thriving beyond my expectations until his passing. I am not sure what to say of a woman who made such a difference in my life other than to share some stories. I wish healing spirits to Mike and her family- including her cats and any other animals she was graced with which my memory forgets. Big Healing Hugs, Jill Stuart
