Harvey was a native of Panama City Florida. He graduated from Mosley High School. He worked for several years with Northwest Construction and assisted his Dad, Harvey Covington II, contractor, to develop and build many residential and commercial properties in the Pan Handle. He then moved to Atlanta and was a lead roofer in torch-down commercial roofs. After several years there, he finally settled in the Enterprise/ New Brockton, Alabama area and lived here locally, until his sudden death Friday in a tragic car wreck. He wasn't a complicated man. His desires were simple really. He loved Econfina Creek his whole life, he loved being out in the woods, and really loved telling stories about his adventures from when he was younger. He loved books, and I can picture him now criss-crossed legs in the recliner with his "old man" reader glasses deeply enthralled in a book. He had a deep love for living simply. If he had his way, he would be in the woods by the creek with nothing but something to read and something to fix! And all though we are devastated by his passing, there is comfort in knowing he enjoyed his last few days.
Mr. Covington was preceded in death by his father, Harvey Covington and step-father, Michael Leggett.
Survivors include his daughters, Chelsea Covington, Ft. Walton Beach, FL, Courtney Covington, Enterprise, AL; mother, Patricia Leggett; sister, Chrissie Covington Warner (Richard) and their children, Tori Ann and Christian Warner; brothers, Robert “Bob” Covington (Kelly) and their children, Julia and John Covington, Stephen Covington (Kacey) and their children, Harvey and Sophia Covington; and numerous aunts and uncles.
