Jasper was one of the most intelligent and complex people I have ever known. He expressed himself consistently as who he was and never waivered. He had a wonderful sense of humor and charming charisma that could make you feel so at ease. He loved my sister as much as anyone can love another. May you rest in peace in the arms of God.

We offer our deepest sympathies to the family on the loss of Jasper. He was fortunate to have been part of such a lovely family. May he find rest in his new, eternal body and renewed mind.

I worked with Jasper at Fiber Industries when I was hired new out of college. He was a great guy to work with, very personable, and forthright. He helped me often in questions as a new professional. At times we even car pooled as we lived nearby. I’ll always remember him.
