Arthur Jaster


Arthur Jaster, 68, went peacefully to his heavenly home on Monday, October 2, 2023. He was born on August 11, 1955, to Howard and Dorothy Jaster in Elgin, IL. He enjoyed growing up on the family dairy farm and after high school continued in the dairy business working at Arizona dairy in Higley, AZ.  It was there that he met Susan, his wife. They were married in 1981, in Warsaw, IL. They raised their three children Levi, Lucas, and MerleAnn on their own dairy farm in southwest Missouri until 1999. After moving to Concordia, MO, Art drove semis all over the United States. He loved to travel and whenever he was near a relative or a friend, they could expect him to stop in to visit.

He is survived by his wife of 42 years, Susan, their children, Levi (wife Emily), Lucas (wife Becca), MerleAnn, and grandchildren Emerson and Bennett. He is also survived by four siblings, and many nieces and nephews.

A memorial fund has been established in his memory at St. Paul’s Church and School in Concordia, MO.
