Condolences & Tributes

Add A Condolence

I love you forever

Ron had the most beautiful wide eyes and infectious smile of anyone I can remember. I remember him visiting me in my home he was always a very polite gentleman who spent hours just talking to me about Sierre Leon Africa and the mother land and his hopes to return home and better his country. I always will remember our days at Tech studying Urban Planning and dancing the night away at some really cool African parties -- he could really really dance! He thought of me with his sporadic phone calls to my home in Washington, DC from time to time. Thank you for your kind ways and loving friendship back then when I was so very far away from home! I could always count on you for good conscious talks and friendship! Loving Memories Connie Mason GIT Friend -- 1979-1981 (4/12/2022) May You Forever Rest in Peace!

My heart is broken. Just learning of Ronald's passing. He was a dear college friend from GA. State with whom I stayed in periodic contact all of these years. My condolences to his family. He was a great person while he walked this earth. His spirit and his soul lives forever!

Ron, May you rest easy now in God's Kingdom. You were a great man and friend. I remember our many talks about your hopes for Sierra Leone (I had no doubt that you would lead that country One day), you cheered us in and let us know when we were slipping but always in a kind way. I'm thankful God let us talk earlier this year. Miss you

Ron Gbassay Jusu was a good, compassionate, helpful, selfless, generous, supportive and friendly person. He demonstrated all of those attributes especially to my late husband and me, and also to many others with whom he came in contact. Thank you Ron for being there for my late husband and me. I will surely miss you, until we see each other in glory. Say Hi, to your "buddy" Lance, [Bo School]. Rest in perfect peace in the loving arms of Jesus, and receive your crown for fulfilling your purpose in life for which God created you.

Hannah, Nikyatu, Maikah, Mama Jusu and the rest of the Jusu Family. Be encouraged in the Lord. He will always be with you. He will console, comfort, and give you His everlasting peace. Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted. Matthew 5:4.

Cecilia KaiKai-Daboh

He lived a good life, he loved all he met and we can tell by the outpour of love and support demonstrated on his death. He was a good man and gave selflessly. I will miss my uncle Ron...

Rest in perfect peace Ron. It is very difficult to let you go. Our conversations about life, new treatments, your research and our local herb treatments filled our conversations. You loved everyone and taught us to be better human beings. Farewell Ron until we meet again. You have so many waiting to welcome you home. Take your well deserved rest. We will miss you. Love, May May as you fondly called me. Zoker family.

Rest in perfect peace. Isata Sie Kanu

Gone from our sight but never from our heart, rest in perfect peace uncle Ron . Sylvanus & Juliana

I have been practicing medicine for over thirty years and have never encountered a patient like my uncle Gbassay. His compliance with his care, his relentless quest for knowledge and new chemotherapeutic agents, his understanding of the biology of the agents he was receiving, his understanding of side effects and pain associated with the agents and his determination to fight until his last breath was unparalleled to experience with the very sick including hospice patients. Ron I understood much about Non_Hodgkins lymphoma and its management issues from you than I have read in medical books and journals. I will always remember the nights we spent together talking even though I could see that we were weak tired and in pain yet you sat long through the night to visit with me. Ron the void you have left in our Jusu descendants family will be difficult to fill. On behalf of my family and myself I say REST IN PEACE. Gladstone.

Ron G Jusu was a brother; one who will go to the bottom of the well to save a brother from drowning. He had a positive attitude and believed that everything was possible under the universe. He fought the cancer with the same attitude and truly believed he will beat the decease. He admonished me to convince brother Abdul Deffie to try alternative treatments available to get a cure. He was devastated when we lost brother Deffie to cancer. Ron cared co much about everyone which made him vulnerable as he sacrificed his own happiness for others. There were many things left undone as we had plans for our retirement back home in Sierra Leone. I will miss my friend and my brother. May God comfort his family and provide him a resting place in his kingdom. Aloysious B M Foh

I have countless memories of running around Uncle Ron and Aunty Hannah's house in Sun Valley back in the 80's. Uncle Ron was always smiling and happy to entertain friends and family. Long before ASLIG was formed Ron Jusu was the glue in the African community. We have lost a giant among men. I pray that his soul finds eternal peace, and that God comforts the entire family.

Ron you are missed. Rest in peace our friend. ASLIG days and having parties that end the following day after breakfast. Look over the children and your love ones. You are missed.
