Eleanor Mondale passing out campaign literature for her father, Walter Mondale, in Chicago in 1984.
The cause was brain cancer, which she had been battling since 2005, her family said.
“She was a wonderful daughter,” Mr. Mondale said in a telephone interview from his daughter’s home, where relatives and friends had gathered. “A great spirit, a lot of courage. She fought this stuff almost six years now, and never a whimper.”
