Eric Wellman

It is with heartbreak and profound sadness to announce that Midwest Unlimited has lost an indispensable, beloved, integral member of our work family, General Manager Eric Wellman, who passed away Saturday, 10/22/2022.

Eric began working as a sales person at Midwest Unlimited in June 2003 and quickly rose through the ranks of vendor relations, product development, purchasing procurement, to sales manager and finally, General Manager. He was adept at helping customers with fall protection, safety and rigging solutions here for nearly 20 years. Eric Wellman was also the NATE Wireless Industry Network State Liaison for Nebraska.

When not in the office, Eric was passionate about landscape and wildlife photography, the outdoors, camping, fishing, hunting, mountain biking, and animals. Eric was a kind hearted soul who enjoyed living life’s beautiful moments and capturing them on film. Some of his work can be seen here: https://www.ericwellmanphotography.com/

One customer thanked him recently: “Just wanted to thank you for the courtesy and professionalism you showed me.” Eric, your work family thanks you for your years of courtesy and professionalism as well. This is a very difficult time at Midwest Unlimited as we grieve the loss of our friend and colleague. But as a team, we will keep his legacy alive by living up to his commitment to service and industry relations.
