About the Book

Soar is a memoir which begins with a description of the early family life of Joyce Jeffries who battled the stigma and setbacks associated with disability and discrimination. This true story tells of her struggle to beat the odds of acquiring higher education which she viewed as the only path to a successful life. Her strength was drawn from the love of parents who enabled her to reject the labels of inferiority often pinned on her. Raised with five siblings in a poor but cultured Harlem community, Joyce was determined to climb out of poverty. The force which propelled her to face challenges and overcome obstacles is best described as faith. She learned early on how to depend on God for the tools needed to burst through the barriers which threatened her survival. Destiny was clearly defined when Joyce met the love of her life, and stumbled into the world of Bene White. Commitment, wise choices and team work afforded them a chance to realize their dreams. Writing her memoir forced the author to mentally visit some places she thought were buried. It allowed her to trace the circumstances of both the pain and joy which morphed her into the person she is today. Having pricked those emotions turned out to be a blessing as well as a healing process. It is with gratitude and excitement that she invites you to soar on this adventurous journey of faith.
About the Author: Joyce Jeffries White spent her formative years in the Village of Harlem in New York City. She is the middle child of six children from the union of Albert Sr. and Helena Jeffries. Joyce received her early education in the New York City public school system, graduated with honors from Marymount Manhattan College and earned a double Master's degree in Business and Health Services Administration (M.B.A/M.H.A) from Wagner College on Staten Island, NY. Joyce enjoyed a successful and fulfilling career in Healthcare Management, dedicating over thirty-five years of service to local, State and Federal governments. Following retirement, she and her husband had opportunity to circle the globe making humanitarian and cultural visits to over forty nations throughout Africa, Asia, South America, Europe, the Middle East and other international destinations. Joyce has been married to Benjamin (Bene) White for thirty-five years, have two adult children, Melodie Helena and Jarobi and an eleven-year-old grandson, Alaric Jarobi (AJ). Joyce and Bene spend the majority of time at their Florida residence in Sarasota but enjoy the best of both worlds traveling between New York and Florida with their 100-pound Black Labrador Retriever. In addition to traveling, The Whites find time to support church and community activities as well as wet their appetite for the Arts.
