Gregory Ussery, 33 years old, of Montclair Virginia, died at his home April 26th, 2023
Greg grew up in Warrenton, VA. He leaves behind his loving wife Karima Ussery, his incredible daughter Liyana Ussery, and the lovingly anticipated Olivia Ussery, whose arrival is expected this coming September. Greg's parents are Elizabeth and Michael Ussery who live in Warrenton.
Greg was President of the Fauquier High Student Council and Captain of the baseball team. He also played on the Fauquier football team. He was a member of the debate team and the school newspaper. Greg graduated from Washington & Lee University in 2012 with double degrees in International Relations and History. He was also on the W&L baseball team, a member of the KA fraternity, and he booked the school's comedy and music performances.
After graduation Greg spent four years doing economic reporting in eight countries for the Oxford Business Group, including living three years in Saudi Arabia. He returned to the U.S. and in 2018 received his masters degree from the Fletcher School of International Relations.
Upon graduation Greg joined the Marines Officer Training Program. He completed OCS and the Basic School at Quantico, VA and served six months in specialized artillery training in Fort Sills Oklahoma. He became Deputy Officer of the Marine International Security Program for U.S. embassies. Greg became a First Lieutenant Artillery Officer, which he continued doing as a Marine Reserve Officer from 2021 until the present. He planned to continue serving for many more years. For the past two years Greg was also a Senior Consultant for Deloitte Consulting, advising and planning on international programs for the Pentagon.
Also, in his spare time Greg assisted veterans in their search for career opportunities. He loved supporting children and mentored children from a young age. He donated financially and donated toys to some churches as well as supported needy children's programs in Latin America.
"Oh God All Mighty, in the midst of everything and with broken hearts, we ask you to provide for our family and to protect us. To remember Greg and cherish his memories and to allow us to continue taking the next steps in Greg's honor. God you fulfill all promises and grant rights, so we pray that you comfort Greg and welcome him into paradise. Wash him with water, cloth him in white, grant him peace, grant him rest, give him strength, and shower him with love. Surely you are the Most Kind, Most Compassionate, and Most Generous and to You, we shall return".
