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.

How sad, I enjoyed reading Harpseal's posts. I didn't know that he was ill. He will be missed here.

He will be sorely missed. He was a good man, and those are a rare sight nowadays.

(And he was a great FR resource!)

I always enjoyed his posts...has it been two years already since he lost his wife? It seems like just a few months ago. Prayers for both of you.

Thoughts and prayers go out to you, my friend. Your description of your friend, Matt, fits only one or two people in anyone's life (if we are fortunate).

I hope in this time that you can draw on the strength that thousands of your friends in this community freely extend to you, our friend.

Praying for His healing touch to help you through the grief of your great loss.

Celebrating the life of a Great American... may G*d bless you richly, Harpseal.

Harpseal will be missed.

The Lord has him now, a better place.

Strange how people you never meet can be part of your extended 'family'. I must remember to find this man when I catch up with him.
