Kenneth Harbin, correctional officer
Kenneth Harbin, an employee at the Price Daniel Unit in Snyder, has died of COVID-19, on July 6, 2020.
Kenneth Harbin, 60, a correctional officer with more than 30 years of service, had been at a Lubbock hospital since June 28 after testing positive for COVID-19, the Texas Department of Criminal Justice said in a news release.
He was showing signs of improvement, but "took an unexpected rapid turn for the worse and died the morning of July 4," the release said.
“Every death of one of our own is a tragic loss," said Bryan Collier, TDCJ executive director, in a statement.
“The thoughts and prayers of his family in gray are with Officer Harbin’s loved ones and friends," he said. "He will not be forgotten."
