Obituary

Joyce Ellen Harbin, age 63, of Des Arc, AR, passed away on August 19, 2025, at Unity Health in Searcy, AR with her sons by her side. She was born on September 5, 1961, to Betty Sue (Colvin) and Joseph Harbin.

Joyce was a warm, spirited, woman known for her kind heart and vibrant personality. A member of Faith Missionary Baptist Church of Des Arc.

Joyce held a love for Elvis that was only rivaled by her passion for wrestling, a surprising combination that endeared her to many. She found joy in the simple pleasures of life, such as feeding and watching hummingbirds, a pastime that allowed her to connect with the natural beauty that surrounded her. Joyce was also a lover of coloring books and word puzzles, activities that reflected her creative spirit.   Joyce loved to spend her time sifting through antique shops, always on the hunt for a hidden gem. She also had a fondness for sight-seeing, a testament to her adventurous spirit and curiosity about the world around her.

Joyce is survived by her mother, Betty Sue Colvin, her sons, Eric Harbin and Timothy Green of Des Arc. She also leaves behind three brothers, Mark Harbin of Newton, KS, Eddie Harbin and wife Anne of Denton, TX, Billie Harbin and wife Reagan of Judsonia, AR, and one sister Linda Carter husband Alvin of Humnoke, AR.

Though we are saddened by her passing, we find comfort in knowing that Joyce is now at peace, free from the confines of this earthly world. She will forever be in our hearts, and her legacy will continue to inspire those who were blessed to know her.
