Joseph Casper Jr., 82, of Houston, took flight with the angels Monday, November 23, 2020 with his family by his side. He fought passionately and loved fiercely.

He cared deeply for his family and friends. He was like a magnet and people were automatically drawn to him.

Mr. Casper was born July 7, 1938 in Canonsburg, a son of the late Joseph and Anna Shalosky Casper.

He graduated from Chartiers-Houston High School in 1958 and worked for McGraw-Edison/Cooper Power Systems from 1969 until his retirement in 1995.

Mr. Casper belonged to the American Legion Post #902 of Houston and the Conneaut Fire House.

He loved dancing to the oldies, golfing, fishing, camping, hunting, boating, playing cards, spending time in the summer at his camp in Conneaut and enjoying time spent with his family and friends.

On June 24, 1994, he married Donna Bird who survives.

Also surviving are his son, Darren Casper of McDonald; daughter, Shelly (James “King”) Snowden of McKees Rocks; step-son, J.D. (Carie) Bird of Houston; two granddaughters, Devin Casper of Canonsburg and Rebecca (A.J.) Cummins of Neshannock; a grandson, Jacob Snowden of McKees Rocks; a step grandson, Tyler Bird of Apopka, FL; a great grandson Mason Cummins; and several nieces, nephews and great nephews.

Preceeding him in death was a brother John Thomas “T.C.” Casper.
