Mary Visser Shot Dead “Tragedy at Tempe Little Caesars: Family Speaks Out”

The family of Shaquille Simmons, one of two victims killed in a December 1st shooting at a Tempe Little Caesars, is now speaking out, revealing their profound grief and loss.

“All he did was show up to work, and that caused his death,” said a heartbroken family member. Simmons, 32, was murdered alongside his 21-year-old co-worker, Mary Visser. The alleged gunman, 27-year-old Benjaman Visser Jr., has been arrested in connection with the deadly incident.

Court records indicate the violence was preceded by a “disturbance” Visser allegedly caused at the pizza shop the night before the killings. The tragedy unfolded near Guadalupe and Rural roads, where police found both victims suffering from fatal gunshot wounds.

As the legal process begins, a family is left to mourn a man whose life was tragically cut short simply for being at his job, highlighting the senselessness of the violence that shattered multiple lives.

Dr. Gary Schlapp Obituary|Countryside Veterinary Clinic Mourns Staff

The community mourns the passing of Dr. Gary Schlapp, who died peacefully on Sunday, November 23, 2025, surrounded by his loving family.

Dr. Schlapp’s life was a remarkable story of commitment to his profession and his patients. His journey began in 1976 when he joined his father at Countryside immediately after school. This began a lifelong dedication to the practice he would later own in 1995. For nearly five decades, Dr. Schlapp was a cornerstone of the establishment, providing unwavering care and building lasting relationships.

His leadership as owner from 1995 until the practice’s sale in 2020 ensured a continuity of trusted service. Even after the transition, his dedication never wavered; he continued his work until his well-earned retirement in 2024.

Dr. Schlapp’s legacy is not just one of professional longevity, but of profound personal connection with those he served. He will be remembered as a devoted healthcare provider, a pillar of his practice, and a family man.

We extend our deepest condolences to the entire Schlapp family during this time of immense sorrow. Details regarding service arrangements can be found in the link provided.
