Life Story for Joe E. Harrington
JOE E. HARRINGTON, 79 of Delta, PA, passed away on Thursday, November 13, 2014 at York Hospital after a courageous battle with multiple myeloma. He was the husband of the late Elaine J. Harrington and the late Mary Ellen Harrington.
Born on February 17, 1935 in Groseclose, Smyth County, VA, he was the son of the late Scott E. and Margaret (Hankla) Harrington. After attending school, Joe became a first class machinist, having worked at the former Glenn L. Martin, for the late Hyde Dooley and as a ship fitter/welder at Wiley’s Shipyard in Port Deposit, MD. After years of dairy farming followed by work as a carpenter, he retired from the former Zell Brothers of Red Lion. In the later years of his life, he was a zoning officer for Lower Chanceford Township. Joe was a member of Mt. Nebo U.M.C. in Delta, Friendship Lodge #663 F. & A.M. of Fawn Grove, PA and a lifetime member of the PA Nite Hunters.
Joe enjoyed pleasure hunting, competition hunting with his Treeing Walkers as well as all the acquaintances and friends that he met in the sport.
Joe is survived by:
Three children-
Martha Eichelberger and her husband, Robert of Airville, PA
JoAnn Atkins and her husband, Howard of Delta, PA
David Harrington and his wife, Robin of Delta, PA
Two brothers-
