Hermanus worked hard on the farm all his life. They first settled near Hudson, South Dakota, then moved to Sioux Center, Iowa. They lived on a farm just south of the First Reformed Church until 1941 when they were no longer able to care for themselves. At one time, the farm extended all the way from the First Reformed Church and cemetery all the way to the mile road and now is known as the Den Herder addition. They moved to the Sheldon Home for retired people.
