Lucas Waters

Lucas Anthony Waters was a Dayton, Ohio resident whose life was centered in the community he called home. Public records identify him as a 34-year-old Black man from Dayton at the time of his death in 2014. While few public personal details are available in published notices, official listings and memorials confirm his name and the date on which his life was recorded as lost.

Records from Montgomery County and the Ohio Attorney General include Lucas among residents memorialized in 2014 and list his death among unsolved homicides affecting the Dayton area. These official sources indicate that his death occurred in September 2014 and that law enforcement continued to classify the matter as an open, unsolved homicide. Beyond those formal references, the public record accessible through local indexes does not contain a family-published obituary or extended biographical notice that provides fuller personal details such as family members, employment, schooling, or hobbies.

Because the published public information is limited, it is important to honor Lucas by recognizing that the available records represent a real person whose life mattered to family, friends, and neighbors even if those details are not widely documented online. Where specific, family-authorized remembrances are not found in public archives, the dignity of the person remains. Lucas’s listing in county memorials and in statewide unsolved-homicide records confirms that his death touched official and community remembrance efforts.

This page aims to acknowledge Lucas Anthony Waters as an individual from Dayton whose life deserves respectful memory. His death in September 2014 is part of the public record; it is also a reminder of the human loss behind such listings. If you have personal memories, photographs, or verified information about Lucas you would like to contribute to a family-authorized memorial, or if you have information that could assist investigators, please consider contacting the Dayton Police Department or the Ohio Attorney General’s cold-case resources so that his life and story can be more fully preserved and understood.
