David Victor “Vic” Banta was born Oct. 15, 1934, in the family home at Anthon, the son of David H. and Mabel Dora (Clausen) Banta. He grew up in Anthon and attended school there, graduating from Anthon-Oto High School in 1952. After working as a painter, working at Armour and Company, driving gravel trucks, working for R.W. Maddison’s fertilizer business, and doing carpenter work, Vic signed up for the draft. He served his country in the U.S. Army from Jan. 25, 1955, for two years. He was active in Operation Redwing in the Einwetok Islands. He was honorably discharged from the Army on Jan. 11, 1957, and served in the U.S. Army Reserves, discharged Dec. 31, 1962. He was a member of the American Legion McNiff Post 389 of Anthon. On June 8, 1957, Vic was united in marriage to Doris Janet Wood in Correctionville, Iowa. The couple lived in Sioux City and later moved to Anthon. Vic found work in various businesses but in determination to succeed, he started working for Wilson and Company in Cherokee, Iowa, in October, 1965. He worked there for 32 years before retiring at age 62. He kept busy in retirement, installing window glass, repairing screens, and doing woodwork. He and Jan remained active and enjoyed life. They learned that a favorite hobby was playing slots every so often, win some, lose some. Jan passed away March 18, 2004. Vic served on the Oak Hill Cemetery Board at Anthon for about 50 years. He also worked as the sexton of the cemetery, being responsible for the cemetery records, selling the graves, and marking them out at the time of a death. He just retired from this activity within the last year due to declining health. He also volunteered for the Anthon Fire and Ambulance Service for over 30 years. Vic joined the Church of Christ in Anthon in 1958 and was then baptized in the Little Sioux River north of Correctionville. He served on the church board most of the years since becoming a member.
