Darlene Joan “Dar” Jasper, 74, of Maricopa, Ariz., formerly of Culbertson, died Wednesday, Aug. 27, 2025, at her home in Maricopa.

She was born Aug. 12, 1951, to Thomas and Dolores Harmon in Scobey. She would eventually move to Bainville, where she graduated from high school in 1969.

She married George Jasper and they enjoyed 37 years of marriage together and raised four children; Jennifer, Melanie, Rako and Travis. They enjoyed camping, boating, fishing, attending country western concerts and the local Trail Rides every Labor Day weekend.

She was incredibly creative and turned her passion for sewing into a successful local business, Dar’s Designs. People came from near and far to purchase one (or many) of her quilts. She liked to share that Hillary Clinton and Jon Tester even have her quilts.

Her passions also included cooking/baking for family gatherings, reading, gardening and spoiling her grandchildren. She never settled for mediocre. Everything she did emanated with greatness and compassion, especially the way she loved.

She and George relocated to Maricopa in 2020, where they cherished their time with grandchildren and great-grandchildren and making memories to last a lifetime. She retired in 2023 in Maricopa, but continued to enjoy sewing “for the fun
