III Gifts: poems & photographs

III Gifts:  poems & photographs Health advocacy, Health literacy & Engagement for ALL people A collection of poetry, prose, and verse is the best way to describe III GIFTS.

Carey Hughley, III was a believer who made his presence known in his own quiet way. He was a dreamer driven by determination and vision. Most importantly, he was kind and compassionate with a deep appreciation for those who accepted him for his unique individuality. This book is titled III GIFTS to highlight three of the strongest traits that characterized his personality--- creativity, leadership, and generosity. It features verses written by Carey in his late teens and early 20s and several photographs he took during family vacations. A tribute section of the book describes the poet in the words of those who knew him best. "Seeing Carey up on the awards stand just seemed to fit. He was a true inspiration because of hisleadership both by word and example as well as his grace in the water."
~Annie Bowers, teammate

"Carey always remained true to himself. His innate pride was evident in and out of the pool. Carey's strong character demands and received respect. He is truly an inspiration to all those who know him."
~Jenny Karpinski, teammate

At the age of 21, Carey was shot and killed by a mentally ill student. Upon his arrival at the hospital, he was declared brain dead. It had been his wish to donate his organs, so his family found the strength and courage to honor that wish. Carey’s ultimate gift---the gift of life touched four families directly. Hopefully with this book III GIFTS, may Carey's message touch many, many more.
