Connie Ordemann loved life

When it came to fixing things, there wasn't anything that Connie Ordemann couldn't get working."He was a guy who could fix anything," said longtime friend, Gordon Fredrickson. "He'd buy vehicles, fix them up, and sell them all the time."Ordemann operated a variety of service stations, including Connie's Standard on the corner of Lynn Avenue and Highway 13, ran a Suzuki shop on Highway 13 where he sold motorcycles and snowmobiles and he was part owner in C & E Upholstery. He even sold real estate for awhile through Link Realty in Shakopee and after retiring from running his own businesses, he continued to work part time at Red Wing Shoes in Burnsville.

Ordemann, 82, passed away in his sleep in Arizona on Sept. 27 while visiting with his daughter and her husband. Sharon and Paul Blaess had just taken him to Utah to see two of his great-grandchildren. "They stopped for the night at Flagstaff and were planning to get up in the morning to see the Grand Canyon," daughter Lori Glynn said. "They all had a nice steak dinner and went to bed." The doctor there said he died in his sleep.

"Ordemann was known as the kind of person who liked to stay busy. His daughter Lori said he always had something going."He never slowed down – he was always doing something," she said of her father. "He worked hard all his life – that's what kept him young."The trip to Arizona was expected to last from Sept. 5 to Oct. 18 and Connie was scouting out places to live there. "He had planned to sell his condo in Burnsville and move to Sun City," Lori said. "He talked about his new place there, and the things he wanted to do to remodel.

"Fredrickson had just visited with Connie and Lori before the trip to Arizona. "He talked about all the work he'd done on his townhouse in Burnsville and how he planned to move out to Arizona," he said. In fact, Lori said that two years ago her father took on a remodeling project all by himself at his townhome by cutting an opening between two rooms and installing French doors. "We asked him to call us when he was getting ready to put the header in so we could help," she said, "The next thing we knew, he had it done."

John Rask, owner of the Red Wing Shoes store on Highway 13 in Burnsville, also said Connie was a hard worker. The two became acquainted as salesman and customer when Rask was shutting down his Bloomington store and moving it to Burnsville."In fact he was one of my last customers at the Bloomington store," Rask said, "And then when we opened up here, I hired him because we needed more help."Ordemann was a very knowledgeable sales person, taking time to talk with customers about the different options available on Red Wing shoes. However, when it came to ringing up the sale on the computer, he didn't like that. So, Rask allowed Ordemann to write up tickets by hand and then inputted them into the system himself later. "I always say I'll take a great salesman over a computer whiz kid any day," Rask said.

Ordemann retired from Red Wing Shoes shortly after his wife, Inez, died. But, customers still come in the store asking about him, Rask said. And Rask continued to allow Ordemann to have a key to the business because he knew if he needed someone to fill in, Connie would answer the call." I called him my 'National Guard' because I knew I could count on him in an emergency to get the store open for me," Rask said, pointing out that Connie recently helped him out in August.

Lori said her father was devoted to his wife Inez. They'd been married 61 years when she passed away. For many years, Connie was his wife's caretaker, as she had arthritis and needed help getting around. "He was her caretaker for 43 years, and she was his whole life," she said.

Ordemann was a charter member of St. James Lutheran Church on Williams Drive at the Burnsville/Savage border and a memorial service was held Saturday morning. Internment was at Pleasantview Memorial Gardens in Burnsville. He was preceded in death by his wife, Inez, and their son, Dennis. He is survived by daughters Sharon (Paul) Blaess, Lori (Rick) Glynn and De Dee (Brian) Varner, eight grandchildren and three great-grandchildren.
