Nicholas Michael Condo Sr., 77, of Bridgeton, died Monday morning, June 14, 2010, at the Hospice Inpatient Unit at Bridgeton Health Center in Bridgeton, following an extended illness.
Born in Philadelphia, he was the son of the late Frank and Rachel (Camuccio) Condo, and the husband of the late Mary Evelyn (Goodson) Condo, who died last year. Mr. and Mrs. Condo had been married for 51 years at the time of her death.
A lifelong Bridgeton resident, he was a graduate of Bridgeton High School and served in the U.S. Navy during the Korean War. He was on the USS Loeser during his time of active duty. Nick worked as a lithographer at the former Price Brothers Lithograph Company in Bridgeton for more than 20 years, until he retired. A member of the Church of the Immaculate Conception, he was also active with the Italian American Civic Club in Bridgeton. He will be remembered as a humble man, who was a devoted husband and father. Many also knew him as a longtime fan of the Philadelphia Phillies and a big fan of Frank Sinatra.
Survivors include two daughters, Julia S. Condo of Media, Pa., and Rachel Condo and her husband Thomas Kuhn of Alloway; one son, Nicholas Michael Condo Jr. and his wife Tamara of Vineland; seven grandchildren, Wade Bell, Pvt. First Class Brandon Hitchner, U.S. Army, Brooke Barry and her husband John, Dale Hills, Tumira Johnson, Nicholas M.

You have a lifetime full of memories of your family that will always be yours. Your heart will ache because he is not physically present on earth, he is present with the Lord and your mother now. Find comfort in the wonderful memories you have of him.

Nicky & Julie - I don't think that I ever met a nicer man than your father. He was a sweetheart who always had a smile on his face and a kind word to say. My thoughts are with you and your families.
