Lance Wilkinson

Prairie du Sac—It is with great sadness that we announce the unexpected passing of my youngest son, Lance, from an undiagnosed condition on November 4, 2020. He was a Systems Engineer at Wolters Kluwer for the past 10 years. He worked hard and he played hard. His favorite accomplishment was getting his PADI Open Water Diver Certification in July of 2019 in Mexico. He was the youngest of four boys to Connie and Dick Wilkinson.

He enjoyed his motorcycle rides and boating. Lance was always fixing or building something. He was his mom’s right-hand—always supporting her computer and electrical questions (and there were so many questions).

He is preceded in death by his father, Dick Wilkinson, and brother, Greg Wilkinson. He is survived by his mom, Connie Wilkinson-Hewitt (Bob); brothers, Randy Wilkinson and Ben Boe; and his puppy, Raven. A private burial was held.

In lieu of a Celebration of Life, The Lance Wilkinson Scholarship Fund #4344 has been established in his honor at UW-Whitewater. This scholarship will only be awarded to students with a declared commitment to completing a course of study in “Information Technology – Networking and Security”.
