Jay Gasper Obituary

Jay James Gasper
Jay James Gasper, a lifelong resident of Fairfield, Connecticut, passed away peacefully on April 14, 2025, at the age of 70. In his final days, he was surrounded by love-his children each came to be with him, and his beloved wife remained faithfully by his side.
Visitation will be held by the family on Friday, April 25th, 2025, from 9:30 AM to 11:30 AM at the Lesko Funeral Home, located at 1209 Post Road, Fairfield, CT 06824. Jay will then be laid to rest at Mountain Grove Cemetery in Bridgeport.
In lieu of flowers, take a moment to share a Coke, plant something, play your favorite Beatles song, or fix something for someone else-just as Jay would have.
