Obituary

Eugenia "Jeannie" G Condon, 97, of Coulee Dam, Washington, was born July 3, 1918, to Robert and Roxie Grosjean in Kamiah, Idaho. She passed away at the Regency Care Center in Omak, Washington, on Wednesday, January 13, 2016.

Following her 1936 high school graduation in Nespelem, Washington, she spent several years in San Diego, California, obtaining her nursing license, before returning to Washington to marry Calvin Jack Condon in 1940. Their daughter, Anita Corrine, joined the family in 1946. Jeannie continued nursing for a few years as Jack worked on roads, eventually getting a surveying license which he used for many years with her help. Jack was a great horseman as well as a pretty fair bronc rider and calf roper during his younger years and raised Quarter Horses until passing in 2002. He passed away in 2002. Jeannie was an accomplished sewer and enjoyed many crafts. She was president of several clubs. Jack and Jeannie involved themselves in many school and community activities after building a home in Coulee Dam in 1968. They were well liked by everyone they came in contact with.

A very special, heartfelt thank you to Marty and Sally Blum who were there for her in too many ways to count during her final years. Friends like that are too few and far between.

She is survived by her daughter, Anita. At her request there will be no services.
