Susan Condon

Susan Condon, 75, of Greenwich, CT and New York City (and, if she had her way, Paris) passed away peacefully on July 7th of a glioblastoma. Born in Poughkeepsie, NY on May 19, 1946 and raised in Brockton, MA, she was the daughter of Doris and Joseph Condon. Susan graduated from Barnard in 1968. She studied Russian history and literature and spent a summer at the University of Leningrad. She then earned a Master’s of International Affairs from Columbia University where she held a National Defense Foreign Language Fellowship. Years later she graduated from Boston College Law School and worked as a tax lawyer at Exxon (in New York and Hong Kong) and later for Mobil. She deeply loved her husband of 35 years, Dennis McDade. They spent nine glorious years in London, exploring the city and traveling all across Europe. Above all else, they valued friends, family, and cocktail hour. Susan is survived by her sisters Jane Condon and Nancy Allatt and their husbands Ken Bartels and Peter Allatt. Aunt

Susie was a second mother to her two nephews Todd Condon Bartels and McDonald Condon Bartels (and adored his fiancée Miriam Roure Parera). She cherished niece Lauren Walsh, great-niece Spencer Walsh, and blonde lab Roger. Susan also had a great fondness for Dennis’ daughters Diane McDade (and partner Barry Mitzman) and Grace Babikian (and children Darcey and Colin). In lieu of flowers, please raise a glass of chardonnay to one of the most positive, kind, devoted, loving and big-hearted people who ever lived.
