Not sure what to say?

I was devastated to hear of Mr. Gasper's passing. I was a student of his at LCCC. He was by far my favorite professor and I remember him fondly. My thoughts and prayers are with his family. I know he is spreading his emmense knowledge up in heaven.

I somehow just came across this that he had passed some time ago. He was my absolute favorite professor and inspired me and encouraged me in so many ways to continue on after lccc and major in criminal justice at Temple. He will forever hold a special place in my heart.

Jacks booming laugh will live on in my mind and will forever make me smile.

Professor Gasper was a great teacher and leader willing to go the extra mile for every student. He helped me graduate a semester early by taking on an independent study which created more work for himself. I will miss our weekly Penn State football conversations and your positive attitude. God bless you and your family.

Jack was a good friend, high school and college classmate and fraternity brother.It was great visiting with him at our 50th last June. I will keep all of those memories close. Rest easy my friend.

I had the honor of meeting Jack through the Community College section of ACJS a few years ago. He was a genuinely kind, sweet man and always so welcoming to new members. I will miss seeing him at ACJS every year. My thoughts go out to all who knew and loved him.

Our deepest sympathy to Alex , Jamie, Jess and their families...we were so saddened by this news. Jack always wore a smile and had a kind word to say. No one can take your memories away...you will cherish them forever. Sending hugs.

As both a former student and co-worker at the College, I am saddened by Jack's death. Jack will be greatly missed.

I had the privilege of knowing and working with Jack at LCCC. He was generous with his time, patient and kind. Always a smile on his face. He will be missed more than anyone realizes. God it seems, only takes the good before their time. God Bless you Jack and your family.
