I have never had the pleasure of meeting you, but I have heard and read such great things about you. As a citizen of the City and County of Honolulu...THANK YOU for serving and protecting me and my family. You are a warrior.

For "Mommy" and the "Girls"...the pain is great, the loss at times, unbearable, know that these feelings will past but the loving memories will last. He will always be in your hearts. Take one day at a time.

Rest in peace warrior, rest in peace...

My Daddy was proud to wear a HPD badge over his heart to protect our state and make it a better place for everyone even if it took his life. I always have him in my heart and pray that he watches over me, my sister and my Mommy too.
I love you Daddy and think of you everyday. God bless all my Uncles and Aunties that worked with my Daddy and keep them safe so that no other children have to be without a Dad.

You were taken from us too soon, but I know deep in my heart that the Lord Jesus Christ needed you and had a special job for you. Your physical presence is gone, but I know your spirit lives on in your family, your friends in blue, and especially the children that were dear to you, Kiana, Taysia, Kalae, Ryann, and Chad who you had unconditional love for. My greatest joy is that you knew how much I loved you. And you were loved dearly. I will miss times we sat watching videos together for hours.
I miss you deeply my hanai son.
Love you always and forever

More and more I'm realizing that the Lord put you in my life for a reason. I'm finding myself trying to be more and more like you everyday. Not judging anyone, keep smiling, and always love everyone around you. Please be comforted that your girls will always be taken care of and that we all love them more than life itself. But we'll never love them more than you did.
We will all do what you taught us. To always remember that your children are your life and that there is nothing more important.
Glen, I love you so go and rest my big brother. We will take care of your children. Please know that the girls are our one priority.
Please go and set a place for us.
We love you

Brother Glen, I wish you could have seen the hundreds of officers lined up in front of the station to salute you one last time as you passed. I wish you could have seen the civilians, many of whom didn't even know you, weep in sorrow and bow their heads in respect. I wish you could have heard the many kind words spoken of you...but then again, perhaps you DID see and hear all those things. If so, you must know that so many loved and respected you. We all miss you very much. You will never be forgotten.

May Officer Gaspar rest in peace as an angel in heaven, and a hero on Earth. May you watch over and protect all of your fellow brothers and sisters who continue to protect and serve every day. My thoughts and prayers are with your children, family and friends. May God help ease the pain they all are feeling right now.

When will the senselessness end?

It has taken me a few days to be able to cope with Glen's death. I knew Glen while I was with HPD and he was the class after me. Glen always had a smile on his face and his spirt uplifted everyone. Even though I have been away for a few years and am thousands of mile away does not make the pain I am feeling any easier. Glen was a great guy and outsatnding officer. He will be missed, but never forgotten. To Glen's family, HPD, and my fellow friends and collegues you are in my prayers.

Deputy Anthony Taglieri
King County Sheriffs Office (Former Honolulu Police Officer)

I just returned from the Honolulu Police Department's main station. In a moving tribute to Glen, hundreds of officers and civilians lined the street fronting the station as his funeral procession passed by. It was truly a magnificent sight to see so many people there showing the respect that Glen so richly deserved. By the time I finish writing this, Glen will have been laid to rest. May he forever rest in peace knowing that his sacrifice will never be forgotten. Aloha Glen...

Ret. Sgt. William Kelley

Although our brotherhood has suffered a tremendous loss, we know that Glen is now safe in Gods arms guarding the gates of Heaven. God Bless you Glen, for all that you have been, and for all that you have meant, to the people whose lives you have touched..."

May the strength and courage continue to show through with all of the officer's and family's members of Officer Gaspar.

REST PEACEFULLY BROTHER, YOUR WATCH IS SAFE.

Bob Ellison, Patrol Officer
Billings Police Department

To my old partner Glen,
I was filled with paralyzing shock and great sadness to hear of your passing. Although we are all grieving your loss, I know you are with our Heavenly Father, preparing the way for all of us. I'll will always hold fond memories of you. Whether it was eeking through the academy (I'm positive you graduated with the 110) and FTO, or giving eachother high fives on the basketball court during those brutal D-4 versus D-7 and D-5 "jungle-ball" games. You were always quick to smile, even quicker to laugh.
We all lost another Warrior in Blue, another fellow Kamehameha Alum, and an incredible human being.
Your spirit and influence shall remain with us. We will never forget.
Imua, Glen

Every time I see another picture, another name, another family in mourning, it makes me sick. The people who do these sensless acts are evil and vile. Then they get an attorney who acts like they raised this person, and presto, life-with the possibility of parole. There is one thing that attorney cannot gain for this killer- Heaven - and that is exactly where Officer Gaspar is patroling right now, alongside many who have gone before him. What would be grand is for his family and department to get is - JUSTICE. Thank you Officer Gaspar for your selfless service, our prayers are with your family, friends, and fellow officers. Tell Billy we miss him....
