Her name Berdyne was from her dad's Norwegian heritage, and she was his cousin Berdyne Halse's namesake. She grew up in the Philip area, and received her education in Philip. Berdyne married Frank Parsons on December 5, 1947, in Sturgis, South Dakota. They lived all of their married life at Milesville, until moving to town in 2004. While in Milesville, she was on the election board, a census taker, and a crop reporter. She served on the Hardingrove School Board, various church boards, and on the Hans P. Peterson Hospital and Nursing Home Board. Berdyne loved to garden, and canned many jars of produce. She especially enjoyed flower gardening. People would drive out from town to see her flower gardens in the shape of the suits of a deck of cards. Keeping a beautiful yard and home was important. She was an avid Scrabble player and worked a crossword puzzle every day. She was a master Bridge player for over 50 years. Sewing and creating new things was something she loved to do. She made numerous needlework pictures, pillows, and over 100 quilts for family and friends. She refinished and upholstered furniture making something old, new. She was a wonderful cook and enjoyed making a good meal. She was challenged with rheumatoid arthritis for nearly 40 years, a chronic affliction she inherited from her dad, but despite the pain she made the most of every day with courage and determination. She was a ranch wife, but she preferred to stay home and take care of the house and children. Her grandchildren and great-grandchildren were the light of her life. Her husband Frank preceded her in death on February 28, 2010. Berdyne continued to make her home in Philip. While in Philip, Berdyne was a member of the Bad River Senior Citizen's Center.
