Joe Harban

Joe Harban, 67, passed away November 8, 2010, at Mercy Medical Center. A celebration of life will be held at a later date.

Joe was born November 5, 1943, in Des Moines to Robert and Lillian (Lowe) Harban. He graduated from East High School in 1962. Joe retired from R.R. Donnelley in 1998.

Joe’s greatest passion in life was enjoying his lake with his family and friends. He loved to hold family reunions and entertain on his farm. He spent many hours watching out his windows while his grandchildren and friends learned to fish and hunt on his land.

Joe is survived by his wife, Linda; children, Rob (Rhonda) Harban, Stephanie (Chris) McDannel and Shannon (Mark) Garton-Bickett; father, Robert Harban; brother, Bob (Kris) Harban; sister, Nancy (Bruce) Peters; grandchildren, Joe Berry, Chad Garton, Nicki Garton, Brad Garton, Kaylee McKeethan, Nickolas Harban, Tommy McKeethan, Nathan Harban and Tyler Harban; great-granddaughter, Isla Summers; and many other extended family members and beloved friends. He was preceded in death by his mother, Lillian; and twin sons, Bobby and Alan.
