Charles Jasper
September 18, 1953 - December 21, 2022
Charles Jasper, 69, of Columbus, passed away Wednesday, Dec. 21, 2022, surrounded by his loving family.
Mass of Christian Burial is 10:30 a.m., Wednesday, Dec. 28, 2022, at St. Bonaventure Catholic Church. Visitation is Tuesday 4-7 p.m. There will be a 7 p.m. vigil service Tuesday evening at the church. Visitation will continue Wednesday from 9:30 a.m. until service time at the church. Interment will be in the All Saints Cemetery. In lieu of plants and flowers, memorials are suggested to the Eagles Club Dance Floor Project or the Columbus Food Pantry.
Charlie was born Sept. 18, 1953, in Columbus to John and Claudia (Placzek) Jasper. He grew up in Columbus and received his education at Columbus High School. Following his retirement from Union Pacific Railroad where he worked for 41 years, he enjoyed spending time with his grandchildren. He also loved his traveling adventures, playing cards with Karen, family and friends. He enjoyed his regular coffee meetings with friends to solve problems of the world. Golfing, fishing and hunting brought him joy and happiness. I am sure he has already found the perfect golf course in heaven.
He will be dearly missed by his loving wife, Karen; son, Eric; son, Brandon (Kristin); step-daughter, Jennifer (Crystal); grandchildren, Ryan, Emily, Savanna and Lilly; brother, Jim (Terri); sister, Joyce Heins; brother, Patrick (Jinny); sister, Jennifer Hollmann; brother, Randy (Geri); and many nieces, nephews, brothers and sisters-in-law and friends.
He was preceded in death by his first wife, Deanna Jasper; parents, John and Claudia Jasper; brother, Greg Jasper; and beloved dog, Teddy.

Our sincere condolences to Charlie's family. I remember the happy-go-lucky Charlie and his antics with our family. Our dad really enjoyed Charlie and his care-free spirit. They would banter back and forth whenever they were together. Rest in Peace Charlie.

My deepest sympathies to Charlie´s family.
Charlie and I were childhood buddies and paired up often as professional alter boys throughout 7th and 8th grades at Scotus. I will always have fond memories of Charlie, including the last time we visited which was during our 50th high school reunion.
May Charlie Rest in Peace and may is family be comforted and blessed.
