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.

That post is troubling, Laz. Go to CT and help Eileen, stay busy, and then kick yourself in the butt in case you want to stray off into trouble. I'm certain Matt would be broken hearted if he knew he was responsible for you losing your firm grip.

Be strong. Eileen needs it. She needs you.

Prayers.

Hey Laz and Trav.

I am awfully saddened to hear about Harpseal's passing.
Had no idea he was sick.
I liked him --- but then who didn't?
He's already missed.

Thanks for the ping on this...

Have not been around much lately, and I would most certainly have missed it.

Sad news indeed, I did not know him personally but he was a shipmate none the less. The upside is another warrior, another shipmate who has preceeded those of us who are waiting our turn has taken "Point". The mission is completed.

Semper Fi Laz,

Semper Fi Harpseal.

See you in the morning when muster is taken for all hands.

Day is done,
gone to the sun
from the lakes, from the hills,
from the sky.

All is well, safely rest.
God is high.

Thanks and praise,
for our days

'neath the sun, 'neath the stars,
'neath the sky,

As we go, this we know,
God is nigh.

OMG.... one of the carnivores are gone? I was just kidding around with him not too long ago.

I'm kind of stunned and sad. I dont' know what to say.

May the Lord bless the Reillys.

My prayers are with you Laz. Don't let the enemy of your soul win. You have much to live for, and your friend would be terribly unhappy to have caused you to fall. Matt knew who his Strength was. He is there for you as well.
