His journey in broadcasting earned him a place in the Guinness Book of Records for having the longest career as a live-match commentator.
Mícheál was a special man with a special broadcasting talent.
Today Mícheál Ó Muircheartaigh died, but the magic of his voice and memories he gave us will mean, in our minds, he will live forever.
Go raibh míle maith agat Mícheál.
As he once said: "Once an All-Ireland final is over, especially the last one of the year, it's like closing in something, but you're already looking forward to the resurrection.
"And like the flowers that grow after the flowers dying with the frost in the winter, the new ones will come if you're lucky enough to be around for them."
