Della Mae Ramstad, mother of U.S. Rep. Jim Ramstad, R-Minn., and Minnesota Tax Court Judge Sheryl Ramstad, died Friday from complications of Alzheimer's disease. She was 81.

When her son ran for his first Minnesota Senate seat in Plymouth in western Hennepin County in 1980, she knocked on 8,612 doors to get the word out.

"She was a tireless and dedicated campaigner," Jim Ramstad said Saturday. "She was a champion of the underdog and an advocate for public service, and she instilled that in her children."

Growing up in Jamestown, N.D., Jim Ramstad said, dinners for the family were always later on Christmas and Thanksgiving because his mother was cooking and delivering food to others. On Saturdays she volunteered to help disabled children at a nearby school.

She also was president of the O.W. Fode Companies of Jamestown, a conglomeration of five companies related to the automobile and farm machinery industry that was founded by her parents, Oscar and Amelia Fode. She established the annual Oscar and Amelia Fode Memorial Law Lecture at the University of North Dakota.

A 1943 graduate of the university, she needed only to complete her thesis to obtain her master's degree from the University of Chicago when she met and married her husband of 58 years, Marvin Ramstad, who survives her.

She was a member of the American Legion Auxiliary, the Order of Eastern Star, the Jamestown and Wayzata Area chambers of commerce, the American Association of University Women, the Business and Professional Women's Club and the University of North Dakota Alumni Association.

Besides her husband and two children, Ramstad's survivors include three grandchildren.
