Joy’s Bio
I'm a caring & compassionate person who likes to help people in general & who cares about all people in general, as well as pets. I don't have any certifications, however, I've sat with several elderly people & they loved me & I loved them. I love the stories they tell, the history behind each one & to just make them smile, to do whatever is needed to make them comfortable in their own home or environment. I have an elderly mother & treat everyone the way I treat my mother; with LOVE. I sat with one lady for a couple of years & she just recently passed away. You love them like family. We all deserve to be treated with dignity & respect & love. I also love pets the same way. We have to be their voice too.---I've been a volunteer with RIFA Soup Kitchen for many years & their kids program & with WRAP, Carl Perkins Prevention of Child Abuse volunteer for 14 yrs, a volunteer with the Dream Center, volunteered with Champions of Hope, March of Dimes, & served on several committees such as Breast Cancer Awareness, Starlight, as well as several boards such as Crime Stoppers & SPCA & Rescue groups for pets. I have a passion for helping people, pets & the community.
