Ronny was born on August 29, 1979 in Minot to Vernon and Stacy (Bertsch) Berdahl.  He sustained a serious brain injury at the age of two years.  However, this did not stop him from attending Perkett, Edison and Ramstad schools.  He graduated from Minot High School in 2000.  Most recently, he had been residing at a REM home in Minot for the past eight years. 

Ronny loved the 3 M’s: movies, music and mountain dew.  He loved to laugh and had an excellent memory and recognition skills.  He enjoyed camping, fishing and spending time with his family and friends and socializing at the Second Story.   He had a special bond with his mother which was indescribable.
