Here's a map. This map has a marker on the hotel, and Dantzman was seen north of the motel. There's no hunting in this area. I have no idea where he could be, but a map of where to start can't hurt.

The thinking he may be shacked up with some lil old lady really hit me, this poor family. I hope he has found a wee Betty.

I cannot even imagine flying him right across the country to a hotel in the middle of nowhere, a decision that'll kill the family everyday. So many shoulda, woulda, coulda here. VERY sad one all round.

There are so many wanderers. This one is awful but Busche gets me, poofed in the middle of Kenosha. Gone. Nobody knows where.

Bumping for Tony and his family.

It's been almost six years since Norbert "Tony" Dantzman, a Korean War veteran and grandfather, went missing in northern Wisconsin. As the search continues a small possible finding is giving his family hope for some answers.

there was a possible promising sign in the last search of a river north of Winter.

"They eventually put a fish cam in the water to float down and see if they could see anything along the bottom," Downey (granddaughter) said. "They did at one point find something that kind of resembled a black shoe."

Tony was wearing black shoes when he was last seen. It's not much, but it might be something to go off of. Downey says they are now looking for a search group or company to dive in the river and search the area.
