Harpo Mata passed away on July 13, 2007, after battling pancretic cancer. Harpo always had hope and faith that he was going to win this terrible battle. Unfortunatly the cancer spread so fast that he passed away after a 2 1/2 months. He was very cheerful for his whole family. Harpo never showed his fear to us, he was so strong minded. He is truly a inspiration to us all. He passed away with dignity and grace. We were all at his side when he died. Everyone who knew Harpo, knew what a great jokester he was. He was the best at telling jokes. His laughter was so contagious. He was a wonderful boyfriend, father, grandfather and brother, and uncle to us all. Harpo brought joy and love to everyone. He will truly be missed by everyone of us. Rest in peace my Dear Brother until we meet again
