Mr Joseph Allen Harbin, age 61 of New Market, passed peacefully at his residence surrounded by his wife and children.
Joe found music at a very early age, becoming an accomplished drummer, where it carried him through the rest of his life. He traveled all over the United States playing music with the band “Wild Oats”, among many others.
Joe had a heart of gold and with him, there was never a dull moment. His amazing stories and charismatic nature always made him the most interesting person in the room. He truly had a spirit like no other, strong and willful till the end. He loved his family immensely and always lived life to the beat of his own drum.
He will be missed tremendously and loved always. “The angels have waited for so long, now they’ve had their way, take your place.” SRV
