The Transportation Security Administration (TSA) mourns the loss of Dual Function Transportation Security Officer (TSO) Ira Lerman. He worked at Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) and passed away Monday following a COVID-19 infection.
Lerman joined TSA in 2008 as a TSO at BOS after an extensive career in finance in the Boston area. A native of Plymouth, Mass., he was well-known and appreciated for his dedication to the TSA mission. Lerman is the 35th TSA employee to pass away following a COVID infection. He will be missed by his colleagues at TSA Boston and remembered for his commitment to transportation security.
We offer our heartfelt condolences to Lerman’s family, friends and colleagues.
