Faces of Public Transportation

“I’m very active. I believe that whatever you can do for yourself you should. But finding wheelchair transportation to keep these commitments is really hard.”

--Cathy Edwards

“I have always led a very active life and when I began to lose my sight I became concerned I would not be able to continue all my activities. I am so grateful to be able to contribute to the community and for WHEELS taking me.”

-- Bob Davis

“It drops me off right at my classes. It’s very quick and I don’t have to search for parking.”

--Chad Rimpsey
