Ronald Eugene Jusko, Sr., 83, of Clymer, entered into eternal rest with his Lord and Savior on Thursday, October 19, 2017.

He was born on September 26, 1934 in Heilwood. He was the son of Alex Carl Jusko, Sr. and Pearl Olive (Croyle) Jusko.

Ron’s greatest pride and joy was his family. His greatest enjoyment was spending time with his grandchildren. He had a special bond with each and every one of them. He also enjoyed hunting, fishing, camping and “tinkering” in his workshop. Some of his favorite past times were feeding his birds and trips to watch the elk in Benezette.

He is survived by his wife of 55 years, Kathleen Sutila Jusko. Four children: Terri (Mark) Myers, Clymer; Tammy (Bill) Hamilton, Clymer; Becky (Steve) Dumm, Penn Run; and Shawn (Angela) Jusko, Saltsburg.
