Ms. Schenk was the second child of August and Eva Schenk and was born on September 3, 1933 in Knetzgau, Germany. Anny Schenk came to the United States in the late 1950s. Because nursing was her passion and vocation and her German nursing degree was not recognised in the US, she enrolled as a student at the School of Nursing at the Methodist Hospital of Brooklyn, New York and graduated there in 1960. She worked in military hospitals in Germany and the US and received many honors for her excellent work in the course of her long career. She retired as a Registered Nurse from her last position at Martin Army Hospital after many year of service.
Survivors include a brother; Lothar Schenk, his sons, Erik and Wolfgang and three nieces, Evelyn and Carolyn Riera and Alexandra Maldonado.
