LA GRANGE – Steve LaVoie, a La Grange resident who was shot by an employee over the summer at his office in Chicago's Loop, has died, according to a post made by the family on the CaringBridge web page used to track updates on his condition.

"I am writing to let you know that Steve’s body has succumbed to his numerous injuries. I had truly hoped to tell a different story now about his recovery, and for so long I believed he would be with us again," Lavoie's wife, Jody, wrote.

LaVoie, 54, CEO at ArrowStream, a food service technology supply company, was shot at his office in Chicago's Loop July 31.

LaVoie was shot in the head and stomach during a meeting with a disgruntled employee in his office on the 17th floor of the Bank of America building, 231 S. LaSalle St., Chicago, according to Chicago police.

The shooter was identified as Anthony DeFrances, 59, of Barrington, according to the Cook County Medical Examiner's Office.

Police said LaVoie had a one-on-one meeting with DeFrances, a longtime employee who was recently demoted at work following company downsizing.

After shooting LaVoie, DeFrances turned the gun on himself and was pronounced dead at the scene from a self-inflicted gunshot to the head, according to police.
