Kenneth Newman, 63, a UW-Madison instrument maker with the Physical Plant Machine Shop, died April 16 when a loading dock lift fell on him while he was conducting repairs. An investigation is underway.
Newman started at UW-Madison in 1989 and became someone co-workers could count on. He had efficiently and effectively completed over 10,000 work orders during his 24 years with the department.
