Read More	Victor Otto Pankonin Victor Otto Pankonin was the fifth of eight children born to Otto and Dora Geisert Pankonin July 8, 1915, on the family farmstead in the Farmersville community north of Grant. He died Monday morning, July 18, 2005, at the age of 90 years and 10 days. He was a lifelong member of Trinity Lutheran Church, being baptized in the faith on Aug. 1, 1915, and confirmed on May 5, 1929. He attended rural grade school near the farm and parochial school at Trinity Lutheran for two years before attending Perkins County High School, graduating in 1933. He worked on the family farm before spending two years working in California. After his return to Grant, he attended auction school in Missouri in 1936 and continued working on the family farm. On Nov. 7, 1942, Victor married Hulda Gloy in a ceremony at Trinity Lutheran Church. To this union were born six children: Galen, Gilbert, Alvin, Kathryn, Charles and Russell. Vic and Hulda raised their family on the home farmstead where Vic engaged in a life-long career of farming. In addition to serving his church, Vic was also involved in public service. He was a member of the hospital board when the original hospital was built in Grant. He also served several terms on both the Perkins County High School board and the Grant Elementary school board. He put his auctioneering talents to work when he and Hulda purchased Grant Sales Company in 1956. The barn held livestock auctions for many years, later concentrating solely on the sheep business. Vic traveled over a three-state area looking at sheep, building one of the strongest sheep markets in the region. The barn also served as a wool collection point for growers. After sheep production in the region declined, they ceased regular sales in 1974, but Vic continued to hold miscellaneous sales, farm and household auctions. He started the 4-H livestock auction, which was held at the sale barn for many years. He continued to auctioneer the livestock auction until crying his last sale in 2002. On March 12, 1990, at the age of 75, Vic lost his left leg above the knee in a farm accident. After recovering, he continued to work on the family farm with his son, Alvin, for another decade. For the past five years, Vic suffered from chronic stump pain which significantly reduced his outside activities. Vic suffered a stroke in mid-June and was unable to recover, passing away in the hospice unit of the Imperial Manor in Imperial. He was preceded in death by his parents, brothers Arnold and Ben, and sisters Gertrude Willcut and Alice Holscher. He is survived by his wife of 62 years, Hulda; children Galen of Omaha, Gilbert of Temecula, Calif., Alvin , Kathryn , Charles and wife, Barb, all of Grant, and Russ P and wife, Lori, of Imperial. He is survived by 13 grandchildren. Other survivors include brother Elmer Pankonin and wife Gerry of Grant, sisters Esther Kurkowski of Downey, Calif. and Bernice Mosel of Garden Grove, Calif., and numerous nieces and nephews. Services were held Thursday, July 21 at the Trinity Lutheran Church, north of Grant, at 10:30 a.m. with Pastor Wayne Pick officiating. Organist was Sandy Glenn and Brandee Marquardt was soloist. Casketbearers were Vic's grandchildren and honorary casket-bearers were his nephews and nieces. Interment was in Trinity Lutheran Church Cemetery. A memorial has been established in Victor's name. Bullock-Long Funeral Home of Grant was in charge of arrangements. SOCIAL SECURITY U.S., Social Security Death Index, 1935-Current about Victor O. Pankonin Name:Victor O.
