He grew up in Charlestown where he was educated at St. Francis De Sales Parochial School and graduated from Charlestown High School in 1958. David enlisted into the United States Air Force on December 8, 1958 and served his country with honor and pride. He was honorably discharged on April 21, 1959 with the rank of Airman Third Class.

He is the devoted father of Chris Condon and his wife Stacy of Friendswood, Texas. He is the loving Grampaw to Caleb J. Condon and Keegan M.D. Condon. He is the best friend and beloved brother of James W. Condon III and his wife Cinthia of Framingham and the late Kathleen Armstrong of Danvers. He is the adoring companion of Louise Marshall of Quincy for over 19 years. He is also survived by several loving nieces and nephews.
Relatives and friends are invited to attend David's visiting hour on Saturday, May 13, 2023 from 11 A.M. to 12 Noon followed by his Funeral Service at 12 Noon in The Carr Funeral Home, 220 Bunker Hill St. Charlestown. His burial is private.
A Celebration of David's life will be held immediately following the Funeral Service from 2 P.M. to 6 P.M. at the Tirrell Room (adjacent to the Quincy Elks Lodge) 254 Quarry St. Quincy, Mass. 02169. ALL ARE WELCOME.
David was a kind soul and wonderful Grampaw, Brother, Father and Companion. Like many in his generation, he rarely chose to avoid sharing his opinion. Especially when it pertained to his beloved Boston sports teams. These traditions live strong in his son and grandsons. He loved playing the prankster, and maintained a lightning quick wit and quirky sense of humor. He will be sorely missed by all that knew and loved him. Rest peacefully, humble servant of Christ.
