Harpseal passed on as of March 19, 2004
His friend | Mar 22, 2004 | Laz

Posted on 03/22/2004 6:45:43 AM PST by Lazamataz

Matt Reilly, also known as 'harpseal' on Free Republic, died on March 19, 2004.

His friend Eileen is making arrangements for a Memorial service at the local VA.

Matt was a former Navy SEAL, a keen businessman, a friend to his Walker Hound, and an accomplished sailor.

He was also my friend and my business partner. I can't barely see the keyboard through my tears. He will be missed greatly.

So sad, so damned sad.

Saber, you don't have to respond to me, but you posted a poem back when Matt's wife died, please post it again.

It's such a shame. I posted the poem up at #110.

Take care, Luis.

I am saddened to hear of harpseal's passing. He was a patriot and a good poster. May God bless his family and friends in this time of grief.

"I'm not taking this very well."

I think a whole bunch of us are not.

I'm not, and I only knew him from his posts.
