~Joe Alan Harvey -- In Memorial~

The Indiana Athletic Trainers Board recently lost one of our beloved board members. Joe A. Harvey 50, of Zionsville passed away on January 1, 2011. He was born March 3, 1960 to William and Marjorie (Heaston) Harvey in Huntington County, Indiana. He was a graduate of Huntington North High School in 1978. He was a graduate of Manchester College and held graduate degrees from Indiana University (Athletic Training) and Butler University (School Counseling). He began his career as an Assistant Athletic Trainer for the Cincinnati Reds and the Indiana Pacers. He also worked at Ortho Indy as a personal assistant to the orthopedic surgeons and served as Coordinator of Sports Medicine for High Schools. Since 1990, Joe served as Head Athletic Trainer at Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School. Since 1993, he was also an Academic Counselor at Brebeuf and was the Director of Academic Guidance at the time of his death. Joe especially enjoyed being an adult leader with eight Kairos retreats where he developed a special bond with many students. Joe's greatest satisfaction was the relationship he developed with the students at Brebeuf both as the Athletic Trainer and Guidance Counselor. Joe was an active member of the Indiana Athletic Trainers' Association (IATA) and served as the President from 2002-2004. He held certification with the National Athletic Trainers' Association. He was a member of both Indiana and American Counseling Associations. He was also a member of the Manchester College Alumni Board and served a two- year term as President. Joe received many awards including IATA High School Athletic Trainer of the Year (2001), IATA Hall of Fame (2004), IATA President's Excellence Award (2010) and Brebeuf Jesuit Echon Educator Award (2008). He was also recognized four times by Who's Who Among America's Teachers. Joe is survived by his father, William (North Manchester, Indiana) , brother Ronald (Joyce) Harvey (Lancaster, Ohio), sister Pat(Rick) Hanson (Indianapolis), niece Erin Harvey (Parkesburg, Pa) and nephews, Ryan and Erik Hanson (Indianapolis). He was preceded in death by his mother. Visitation will be at Brebeuf Jesuit Preparatory School on Wednesday January 5, 2011 from 3:00 pm to 6:30 pm followed by a prayer service at 7:00 pm. Joe was a member of the Salamonie Church of the Brethren (Warren, Indiana). A burial service will be held at nearby Lancaster Cemetery at a later date.
