Venteicher, Hank, he was married to Bonita Hermsen/Singsank, I'm not really sure of her maiden name. Bonita's parents were George Hermsen and Katherine Singsank. Henry and Bonita's Childern: Paul Venteicher Gloria Venteicher Darrell Venteicher Donald G. Venteicher Born: July 27 1940 Died: December 22, 1989 Their son, Paul Venteicher, was a farmer, living near the Carroll, Iowa airport. I remember I knew one of their kids when I was in high school and he rode my school bus. I can't remember his name. This was back in the early 1970s. Hank and Bonita lived on the Frank A. Venteicher farm southeast of Carroll, Iowa. Frank A. Venteicher was Hank's father and my grandfather. Hank's sister, Julie (Venteicher) Hacker is my mother. Do you think that Bonita's father George Hermsen might be related to your Hermsen family? Let me know if there is a connection.
