Jane Peterson Partridge was born on May 5, 1943 to Adrian D and Melba Gledhill Peterson. She was raised in a family of five, with one older brother, Gordan, and three younger brothers: Doug, Ralph, and Ivo. She lived most of her life in Richfield, Utah and graduated from Richfield High School in the class of 1961. At the time she was the first class to finish in a new Richfield High School. She attended Southern Utah State College (now known as SUU) and later graduated from Utah State University with a degree in elementary education. Shortly after college she taught elementary children in Salt Lake City and Vernal Utah. She served faithfully in various callings in The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, including Primary pianist, librarian, teacher and minister. She married Alan Partridge on November 21, 1970 and was sealed to him in the St. George Utah Temple. Together they had five wonderful children: Jannice, Arthur, Melanie, Thomas, and Malissa.
