Narrative
On April 23, 2016, at approximately 9:30 a.m., a maintenance employee was on a scissor lift with a coworker, preparing for an entombment. Working from the lift, the two employees removed the granite face from the mausoleum. As the granite was being lowered to the lift, the maintenance employee fell 12 feet from the lift and landed on the concrete surface below. The employee was hospitalized for fractures to the face, both wrists, and jaw.
