Don, “Bullet” to all who knew him, loved Delta Air Lines. He happily served for almost 42 years in Tech Ops, starting his career in the Purchasing department in 1953 and ultimately creating the first Warranty program in the airline industry. He retired in 1995 as the General Manager of Warranty and Contract Administration, but his work for his Delta family did not stop there. Over the next 15 years, until his passing in 2010, he volunteered with the Delta Flight Museum, served on the board of DALRC, was an officer for the Delta Pioneers, and worked with the Delta Care and Scholarship Funds as a fundraiser and retiree consultant. Bullet took incredible pride in being part of the Delta family and would do anything to help a fellow family member in need. Shortly before his passing, he asked his daughter Joni, a member of the Res and Care division since 1996, to request that in lieu of flowers, his friends and family donate to the Delta Care and Scholarship funds in his memory. It gave him peace knowing that he could continue to help his Delta family even after he was gone.

On Saturday, May 2, 2020, in support of The Delta Scholarship Fund, there will be a group running/walking in Bullet's honor. Join the group In Memory of Donald 'Bullet' Harbin if you would like to participate with us. The Delta Scholarship Fund provides educational scholarships to worldwide employees of Delta Air Lines and their eligible dependents.  In 2019, more than 600 scholarships totaling $1.45M in awards were made, all from the generosity of employee and community support.

Please help us- his family, friends, and colleagues honor and remember him by signing up for the race, donating to the cause, or even sharing this to your network.
