Lance Maurice Herrera Dempsey, 52, was shot and killed on December 23, 2017, at the Dublin, Ohio post office where he worked as a supervisor for the United States Postal Service. The shooter, mail carrier DeShaune Stewart, reportedly entered the Dublin facility naked and shot Herrera Dempsey in the shoulder after Herrera Dempsey reacted to seeing him. Stewart then drove to Columbus and attacked another supervisor, Ginger Ballard, who later died of blunt force trauma.
Stewart was arrested shortly after the attacks and charged with aggravated murder; reports say he was under investigation for workplace violations and facing possible termination. Herrera Dempsey is remembered by colleagues and family as witty, outgoing, adventurous, and devoted to travel. His husband, Steve Dempsey, has shared memories of their life together.
Does anyone have memories of Lance at work or in the Dublin community that could shed light on his life and the impact of his loss?
