Dr. Rulon Packard Condie
1945 - 2018
Early Life: Rulon was born February 28, 1945, in Payson, Utah, to Arthur Earl and Jessie Packard Condie. Rulon, along with his siblings: Phyllis, Packard, Jane, and Lee enjoyed a comfortable, nurturing home, but one with few luxuries. His father ran a dairy farm in Springville, Utah. Rulon milked cows morning and night and had a bicycle paper route to help provide and support the family. The jobs obviously developed in him a capacity for hard work that later enabled him to accomplish a myriad of responsibilities, both at work and for the Church. Growing up, he learned the gospel from his parents by both precept and example.
Life’s Work | Service | Interests: Rulon led a remarkable life of missionary work and service. He relied on gospel principles to guide him as a youth surviving a near-death auto accident in his senior year of high school, as a young adult preaching the restored Gospel of Jesus Christ, as a student at Case Western Reserve University School of Dental Medicine in Cleveland, Ohio, and as a businessman running a flourishing dental practice and family farm. Soon after his return from his mission for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in the North Central States, Rulon began dating Marylou Craig, whom he had grown up with in the 9th Ward. By the spring of 1968, the two had managed to spend enough time together to know they loved each other. They were married for time and all eternity in the Salt Lake LDS Temple on August 8, 1968. This August would have been their 50th wedding anniversary. Rulon and Marylou raised eight children and set an example of love and devotion. Even during the busy years of Rulon’s service to the ward as a counselor, bishop as well as a first counselor in the Hobble Creek Stake presidency, his family was always his first priority. The scenario of a more leisurely life after retirement, not a chance. Rulon turned his successful dental practice over to his son, Jared, to accept a two-year call to the Scotland Ireland LDS Mission where he and Marylou spent their time serving young single adults. After their mission, he and Marylou relished their time as grandparents to 38 grandchildren and one great-grandson. While his true greatness might not be known by the world at large, the thousands of little deeds and tasks of service and sacrifice are his legacy. He was patient, a good listener, a faithful friend with an infectious sense of humor, and above all, a “good and faithful servant” of the Lord. Rulon Packard Condie DDS was released from his earthly ministry after a yearlong battle with cancer June 4, 2018. He passed away at home, surrounded by his family. He was 73.
