Jasper Ross Obituary
LIMA -- Mr. Jasper Ross, age 62, passed from this life on Thursday, December 8, 2022 in Lima, OH.
Jasper was born in Evergreen, Alabama to Lawyer Ross and Ollie P. (Jackson) Ross.
Jasper graduated from Castleberry High School at 16 years old and went on to receive a degree from Ed Reid Technical College at 19 years old. After completing school he worked at Texas Instruments in Houston, TX and Compact Computers. Jasper was a hard worker who kept a hustle. He was also extremely resourceful; he traveled to various parts of the country with nothing more than his wits and a good pair of boots.
Jasper loved all kinds of music and playing sports. He was known to always have a boombox with him and could play basketball well for his height. He also enjoyed engineering and science. He achieved several different certificates in electronics and computer science. He was well known wherever he went and had many friends and customers. He was a survivor; he had a rough upbringing and for a while made it out.
He leaves to cherish his memory 3 sons, Aaron (Tsedey) Williams of Cincinnati, OH, Alonzo Williams of Columbus, OH, Justin Williams of Cincinnati, OH and newly found and reunited additional son Joshua Goodlow of Chicago, IL; as well as a daughter, Jessica Williams of Cincinnati, OH; 3 sisters, Angeline (Jimmy) Ross-Wiley of Castleberry, AL, Louise M.

Jasper was a guy i have known for 15 years or more. When I first met him; i wasn't sure what to think of him.
He liked lots of music, working to make money. He used to ride his bike with a rake in hand until someone took it from him.
He could give speaches at times. I remember a time when he was wanting to become President of thr U.S.A. He had a card table and chair outside of his apartment and was campaigning himself. That is 1 of the times I thought well. Anythimg's possible.
So long my friend! R.I.P. Jasper Ross.
Condolences
To all his friends and family
