Norma Louise Condition, a beloved mother, grandmother, and friend, passed away peacefully on September 3, 2026, just one day shy of her 76th birthday. Born in Fresno, California, on September 4, 1950, Norma was the cherished daughter of Norman and Allene Dodderer. She was a woman of grace, strength, and unwavering love, cherished by all who had the privilege of knowing her. Growing up in a close-knit family, Norma carried the values instilled in her by her parents throughout her life. Though Norman and Allene have predeceased her, their spirit and teachings lived on through Norma's actions and the loving family she nurtured. Norma's greatest joy in life was her family. She is survived by her devoted daughters, Melissa Smith, Melinda Dove, Mica Smith, and Michele Bock, who will forever hold her memory dear. Norma's legacy of love also extends to her 11 treasured grandchildren, who were the light of her life. Each grandchild brought her immense pride and happiness, and she delighted in their accomplishments and unique personalities. Norma was known for her warm heart, infectious laughter, and the kindness she showed to everyone she met. Her home was a sanctuary filled with laughter, love, and the aroma of her famous home-cooked meals. She had a gift for making everyone feel welcomed and valued, a testament to her generous spirit and loving nature. Her life will be celebrated on September 26, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. at the American Legion in Lebanon, Oregon. Family and friends are invited to gather and share in the memories and joy that Norma brought into the world. The American Legion, located in Lebanon, Oregon, will serve as a fitting place to honor a life so well lived. In lieu of flowers, the family kindly requests that donations be made in Norma's memory to a charity of choice, as a way to continue her legacy of giving and love. Norma Louise Condition's strength, compassion, and unyielding love will be deeply missed, but her spirit will remain in the hearts of all who knew her. As we say goodbye, we do so with gratitude for the time we shared with such a wonderful woman, knowing that her legacy will continue to inspire and guide us.
