Scholastica (Lottie) Boehm was born October 18, 1926 in Morton County to Alexander and Elizabeth (Matz) Boehm. Although she was given the name Scholastica, it was difficult for her siblings to pronounce as children, so she became known as Lottie, which she was fondly called for the rest of her life. She was raised and educated in rural Morton County. On October 17, 1949 Lottie married Richard J. Pitzer in Mandan. She worked for 27 years in the meat department at Bill’s Super Valu before retiring. Family was very important to Lottie, especially family gatherings. She was an avid fan of and cheered on her children and grandchildren at their various sporting events. Lottie also enjoyed the outdoors, fishing and working in her flower garden brought much enjoyment. She belonged to Christ the King Catholic Church in Mandan for many years.
