Patrick's Story
I graduated with the class of 64 and went on active duty with the United States Navy just days later. I had joined the service while a junior in school, we were known as "Weekend Warriors" attending drills once a month in Memphis Tennessee. I spent my first year of active service in Patrol Squadron 16, Jacksonville Fl and the second year with the Admirals Staff of COMCARDIV 6 also stationed in Jacksonville Fl. That is where I met my wife and married on December 31, 1966. I worked with Winn Dixie, a southern supermarket while attending college at night. While still in school I worked with Barnett Bank and General Acceptance Corporation in the finance industry. After graduation from Jones College with a BS degree I was assigned the position of manager with General Acceptance Corporation in Altamonte Springs Florida. I was there for a few 6 months when I was offered a position of manager to open a new consumer finance off...Expand for more
ice with Ford Motor Company back in Jacksonville Fla. I held that position for 20 years. After leaving Ford I was too young to retire so I found work at EquiCredit formerly known as Oldstone Financial Corporation. I worked as an account service representative. When this company started a training division, I was offered a position of company trainer for both the Chicago and California region. That was short lived as we were purchased by Barnett Bank. It is here the second time around that while still holding a training position that I further studied Instructional Design. The bank then was acquired by Nations Bank and a year later merged with Bank of America. I left them after eight years and started with the City of Jacksonville as a corporate trainer where I became certified in Instructional Design. I retired in 2009 and enjoy my free time riding my Harley, taking cruises, camping and visiting St. Louis now and then.
