Lyon Street Santa Ana, CA. 92705 Phone: 714.574.5674 Fax: 714.547.0167 Office Email: sspeedyI12(@.earthlink.net Personal Email: pk.sirspeedy@earthlink.net Patrick was born in Bellflower, California in 1964 to a Dutch couple, Betty and Bob Korthuis. Mr. and Mrs. Korthuis arrived in the USA a few years before Patrick was born. He considers it a blessing to be able to be raised knowing two different cultures, the Dutch and the American culture. Patrick has an older brother, Edward and a younger sister Yvonne. Patrick was very fortunate to have been able to go to Holland several times during his youth and spend time with his Dutch relatives. The visits to Holland and the influence of his parents gave Patrick the opportunity to learn Dutch. Patrick learned the value of entrepreneurship at the age of nine when he acquired his own newspaper route, delivering for the Harold Examiner, and then moved to the Independent Press Telegram. He graduated from Gahr High School in Cerritos. He was accepted at Universal Technical Institute, where he graduated with a Diesel Mechanic degree. He worked as a Mechanic for 18 years before he and his wife decided to venture into having their own business. After some research they bought a Sir Speedy Printing. They have had their business since 1999. In 2006 they were able to purchase a building for the business which allows them to continue to grow. The business has been in Santa Ana since 1974 and at the same location until they recently moved into their new facility at 1540 S. Lyon Street in Santa Ana. Patrick is a member of the Santa Ana Chamber and Hispanic Chamber of Commerce and is past President the Santa Ana Kiwanis club. In his free time he enjoys working in the garden. His hobbies are motorcycle riding, water skiing, and snow skiing. His dream would be to one day drive a race car. Patrick has been blessed with three boys, Brandon 19, Jason 18 and Nathaniel 6wks. Brandon is in his second year of college attending LBSU and plans to attend Chiropractic College. Jason is a senior in High School and would like to be an Anesthesiologist. The youngest is Nathaniel and we don't know what he wants to be because he is only 6 weeks old and doing great. Patrick and Christy have been married for nine years and enjoy traveling, campmg, golfing and walking in their neighborhood after dinner. 138-7 DONNA LIN 48 Son SebastUn fuwcha S.m, Margan"', CA 92638 (94g) 375-3434 [-maiL d0nnll.hn~}AASCSC.or~ OBJECTIVE: UT~JZE MY EXPERIENCE TO SEKVE THE_ ASBN COMMUNITY --,_._--.-_.._~"-"- .,-' - ----------..
