Unfortunately, Covey was active in opposing marriage equality for the LGBT community, and that's how I remember him.

Gretchen, Wow, those are beautiful stories, thank you so much for sharing. And your sister, Barb, lives on through all the people she has touched both literally and figuratively through her HUGS. God Bless her and YOU. Continue her work, as we all are aware, JOY is Contagious in a good way; let's make it go Viral! HUGS to YOU: <<<<<gretchen>>>>>>
PS I am on my way to Africa started June 2013, to hopefully volunteer for 6 months. I'm invited to Kenya and Ghana to perform and to expand my volunteer literacy project. I've also recently been invited to TamilNadul, in Southern India to do the same. I've NO Idea HOW I will fund these trips as I already use so much of my own funds for my project in Belize. May I please borrow your sister Barb's fundraising idea about sharing HUGS withe the people within Kenya, Ghana and India for a donation? I have NOT EVER connected FREE Hugs to any sort of donation, however, I can see that doing it in a different way.... NOT an organized FREE HUGS, but a different type of campaign can help further my literacy volunteer work. Again, blessings to you and keep passing the joy forward.
