Ronny James Partridge-Powell, 25 years old, of Fargo, North Dakota began his spiritual journey unexpectedly on January 14, 2017.  Ronny was born in Minneapolis, MN on January 13, 1992 to Gene Sherman and Francine Partridge.

Ronny was separated from his siblings at a young age and raised by his cousin Elizabeth "Betsy" Partridge.  As a result, he never really got to know his family, this was something that bothered him.  In search of himself, he moved frequently trying to find his calling.  Ronny became a father and James Nicholas Ziem was his best joy.

Family welcoming Ronny to the spirit world are his mother; Francine Partridge and aunts; Mary Wabasha and Cathy Bigfoot.

Ronny leaves behind his son; James Nicholas Ziem of Wadena, his father; Gene Sherman of Minneapolis, brothers; Darrell Partridge of Bemidji and Bruce Partridge of Minneapolis, sisters; Charity and Cheyenne Partridge both of Minneapolis, Danielle Schman and Tia Glass both of Cass Lake, aunt; Betsy, uncles; Charles and Chucky and grandma; Charmaine, other relatives and many friends.
