When a friend asked Joy why she had to drive so fast, the logical thinker replied, "If the blind lady drives fast, she spends less time on the road and that makes the road safer for everyone."
Joy no longer drives, but nothing will ever stop her. She has the energy of that bunny you see on TV. Legally blind since birth, but not told until she was 35 years old, she received both a bachelor's and master's degrees never being able to read a page out of a book and receiving no reading assistance. She is now an adjunct professor of accounting at the Master's level.

Her personal story has inspired audiences both young and more mature. Many attendees have as a closing comment...
