Renee Michelle Harbin

Renee Michelle Harbin, age 56, of Winthrop Harbor, Illinois, passed away peacefully at her home  February 23, 2026. 

She is survived by the light of her life daughter Ashley Harbin; beloved grandchildren Brody Parrish, Brooklyn Parish, Emma Myers and Mason Myers; dear brother Richard Harbin, dear sister Rebecca Harbin; brother Brian Kelly, loving aunts and uncles, many cousins, and many loving friends. 
She will be met in Heaven by her mother Jeanette Yvonne Ester, father Jerry Wayne Harbin, step-dad Michael Allen DeBaets, and several other uncles and family who cherished her.

Renee was a true prayer warrior who gave of herself to anybody that was in need. 

Her smile and laugh would light up a room and no matter how bad things got she was always a light and a source of hope to those around her.

A great day for Renee was relaxing in her pool with some Eric Church playing in the background surrounded by a couple of her besties

She was deeply loved and will be greatly missed.
