I was sorry to learn Friday of this great reporter, who was the Sixers' beat reporter for the Philadelphia Daily News for nearly 30 years. In a town where there aren't many universally beloved media figures, Jasner certainly was one. I used to run into him at synagogue, and at the Shore in the summer as well.
Here's Rich Hofmann's excellent obituary.
