If you close a web part by selecting Close from the drop-down menu of the web part, the web part is still be part of the page. To bring it back, or remove it from the page completely, go the the Edit Page mode and then click to Add a new web part. Click the Advanced Web Part gallery and options link and look in the Closed Web Parts collection.
Closed web parts still take up resources on the page, so make sure you remove any unused web parts.
