Carol Glatzl, 77, died on February 14, 2019 at the Hospice House in Rapid City, SD, surrounded by her children. Carol was born on Oct. 17, 1941 in Harvey, ND, the fourth youngest of Joseph and Margaret Muscha's 13 children. She attended country school until 8th grade, after which she stayed home to help on the family farm. She married Ralph Glatzl on June 1, 1964 at St. Cecelia's Catholic Church in Harvey.

Carol and Ralph made their home in Casselton, ND, where they raised their children. Carol earned her GED in 1980, and furthered her education with a degree in Surgical Technology in 1998. Carol and Ralph moved to Rapid City in 2002, where Carol worked at West Hills Assisted Living until retiring in 2006. Carol was a crossing guard for Meadowbrook Elementary School from 2010-2017. She loved the kids and sewed dozens of pairs of mittens for them. Ralph and Carol also donated coats every fall for needy children at the school.

Carol was an excellent seamstress, and especially enjoyed sewing special shirts and dresses for her grandchildren. She also loved baking cookies with the grandkids—the cookie jar was never empty at her house! Carol and Ralph always had a large vegetable garden and enjoyed canning the fruits of their labor. Everyone loved her pickles and potato salad! She also enjoyed her flower gardens.

She is survived by one son, Frank (Cindy) Glatzl and daughter Morgan of Florence, TX; and two daughters, Janet (Marlow) Scherbenske and sons Kolton, Tad, and Drew; and Mary (Bob) Jacobs, and children Allison and Aidan, all of Rapid City, SD; six siblings: Bennie (Glennis) Muscha, Virginia Muscha, Shirley Marek, Rose (Arnold) Seefeld, Art (Judy) Muscha, and Richard (Janice) Muscha; sister-in-law Leona Kennedy; and many nieces and nephews.
