&amp;quot;Milt McPike's bedrock values of hard work, education and family made Madison a vastly richer place. We will miss his commitment to young people, his open-hearted service, and the way he inspired generations of students to achieve and succeed.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;quot;He was a guiding force for students, teaching them to embrace diversity, overcome bias, and build their lives through learning.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;quot;At this most difficult time, my thoughts are with Milt's wife, Sharon, and his family and friends. We have lost a powerful role model, but one whose work has helped brighten the futures of countless students and of the entire Madison community.&amp;quot;
