Betty Jean (Moritz) Glathar, 88, of rural Dawson, Nebraska, was born on July 28, 1923, in rural Humboldt, Nebraska to Paul and Louise (Gossman) Moritz. Betty grew up on the family farm and attended country school in Richardson County. In 1941, she was honored by being Queen of the Richardson County Fair. On August 17, 1943, Betty was united in marriage to Lou Glathar by Rev. Ward Merritt in Humboldt, Nebraska. To this union, three children; Sharon, Dwaine, and Terry were born. Betty raised her family and helped with all aspects of their farming operation. She was an avid gardener that canned or froze food from the garden.
