Stuart Eynon ’49
His 98 years were richly lived
S

tuart Eynon ’49 was so active and adventurous well into his 10th decade that it would have been virtually impossible for strangers to accurately peg his age were it not for a patch he wore proudly.

Eynon, a lifelong avid skier who was still hitting the slopes as a nonagenarian, became something of a celebrity while sharing drinks with his son, Ted ’85, in ski lodges from New Hampshire to Colorado. “He had a patch that said something like ‘90-plus ski club,’ and I’d be having lunch or an après drink with him and people would always be coming over asking him ‘are you really over 90 years old?’” Ted says.

He certainly hid it well. He skied until he was 95 – then gifted his skis to his cardiologist. He was in his 80s when he had a house built on his property and he and his wife, Wanda, elected to sand every post and beam themselves. He tended to a Christmas tree plantation (featuring more than 4,000 trees) and a small apple orchard on that same property – spanning 22 acres in total – and spent hours every week walking both, meticulously pruning the trees.

“He got immersed in things he was passionate about,” Ted says. “He was just a very active, positive kind of guy. He wasn’t one to sit around.”

Those many passions colored his richly lived 98 years. He traveled the world skiing – his favorite destination was Alta, Utah, and he was a regular at Bretton Woods in New Hampshire well into his 90s, but he also skied the Alps in Switzerland and Austria. He fished for salmon in British Columbia and often camped along the Appalachian Trail.

But perhaps Eynon’s most enduring passion was his connection to the outdoors, and forestry in particular, which was a constant thread weaved throughout his life. His relationship to nature went beyond recreation, defining his collegiate experience and a seven-decade career with one company.

Eynon earned a forestry degree at UNH that led to a job with Heath Consultants in Massachusetts, which at the time was clearing aging trees for local municipalities but would soon emerge as a world leader in gas leak detection and investigation. Prior to the creation of more sophisticated equipment, evaluating dead or dying trees and surrounding soil was the most efficient way to identify natural gas leaks. Heath Consultants focused on developing that expertise early, and quickly earned acclaim in the field. Eynon became the owner’s “right-hand man” as the company became a go-to outlet for investigating leaks and explosions around the world.

Eynon would never look for another job again. Even in retirement he worked as a consultant into his 80s and was a member of the Heath board of directors until his passing in January.

“He only worked for one company his whole life, and his career really started because of his forestry degree from UNH,” Ted says.

In part for that reason, UNH was always a special place to Eynon. His time there was interrupted, as he left after one year to serve in World War II as a ball turret gunner, flying some 43 missions, but he returned to graduate in 1949.

It was at UNH that Eynon met his best friend and fraternity brother K.V. Dey ‘48, and the pair married sisters, creating a legacy connection to UNH that endures (there have been nearly 10 graduates combined from the two families).

“He was an exceptional man,” Ted Dey ’84, K.V.’s son and Ted Eynon’s first cousin and close friend, says. “His smile could light up a room. He had joie de vivre – he worked hard but he enjoyed life. He always remembered where he came from, and the opportunities that UNH provided him. He was a national treasure.”

That affection for UNH was often belted out musically at university functions and family gatherings, as Eynon was known to sing the university’s alma mater whenever the opportunity presented itself.

“At every family get-together, he would always sing the UNH alma mater,” Ted Eynon says. “The drinks would start flowing after dinner, and someone would get it going and they’d all sing it from the top of their lungs.”

K.V. Dey’s wife, Pat, recalls that fondness for UNH, too, but it’s not the first or most enduring thing she’ll remember.

“The best thing about him was he was a wonderful friend. He was good to everybody,” says Patricia Dey. “When I think of him, I think of him laughing and I think of his wonderful smile.”

She was a “true UNH blueblood”

n 2007, as the 20th anniversary of the UNH Foundation approached, Valerie England ’54 came up with an ambitious idea: to document the first two decades of the university’s fundraising organization and indeed of its then nascent culture of philanthropy in a book. Two years later, “From the Ground Up,” a 120-page history of the UNH Foundation, was a reality.

“My mother was full of ideas, and incredibly good at finding the right people to execute on them,” says Jennifer England Decker ’77, one of three children Valerie raised with her husband of 63 years, Fred. The book, a case in point, helped her to earn the foundation’s 2009 Volunteer of the Year award — something for which she was quick to share credit, writing in to UNH Magazine to acknowledge her partnership with her fellow UNH Foundation Directors Emeriti History Committee members.

The book — and Valerie’s participation on the foundation board of directors — was just one of the many ways in which she remained involved with her alma mater after graduating from UNH. Raised in Woburn, Massachusetts, she spent summers on the “gentlemen’s farm” in the Shankhassic neighborhood of Durham Point that had been in her family for generations and fell in love with the university at an early age. An occupational therapy major and a member of Alpha Chi Omega, she regularly regaled Jennifer and her siblings, William England and Hilary England Cross ’86, with UNH stories as engaging and wide-ranging as inadvertently freezing herself to the top of an ice sculpture during Winter Carnival and developing a friendship with artist-in-residence Edwin Scheier, whose well-known ceramic works she and Fred subsequently collected.

As an alumna, she served on the board of the Alumni Association, on the President’s Council executive committee, and on the Class of 1954 steering committee. In the latter capacity, class president Harriet Forkey ’54, ‘67G recalls, “I’m pretty sure she worked on every possible reunion committee and fundraising subgroup. There was nobody who had a larger network of classmates than Val did.”

Jennifer says her mother maintained that network assiduously, regularly writing three letters a day to friends she had made not just at UNH but also at Cushing Academy and through her roles with her local League of Women Voters (for which she served as president), the Camp Fire Girls (a group with which she spent a decade and founded a creative arts festival that continues today), the Piscataqua Pioneeers and the New Orleans’ World War II Museum — among others.

“She stayed in touch with everyone she ever met,” her daughter says. “Her letters weren’t necessarily long or overcomplicated, but they were personal and very appreciated by those who received them.”

Classmate Lois Chase ’54 was among those with whom Valerie reconnected many years after graduation, after both women had raised their families and found time to volunteer on their class reunion committee. “We would talk about politics and current events,” Lois recalls.

Although it was “one of her regrets” that she never practiced as an OT, Valerie, who met Fred, then a Dartmouth undergraduate, when they both attended an insurance convention as students, spent many happy years traveling the country with her husband when he became the national president of the Independent Insurance Agents of America. She also made her mark in service as a generous philanthropist, establishing multiple endowments at UNH to support occupational therapy as well as the Museum of Art.

“She used to say you have a duty to give in whatever way you can,” Jennifer recalls of her parents’ perspective on philanthropy. “And giving was a way for her and Dad to lead others to give, too, so she could go to them and say, ‘We gave, and we know you can, too.’”

Harriet Forkey recalls that generosity extending to Valerie’s time, and to the readiness with which she opened the doors of her Durham Point home to fellow Class of 1954 steering committee members and others. “She was a true UNH blueblood, always ready and willing to do whatever she could for the class,” Harriet says. “She loved UNH very much and had a deep history here.”

It was a testimony to that love and history that when Valerie died of cancer on March 7, 2021, Jennifer and her siblings heard from literally hundreds of their mother’s close friends — including many whose existence they were learning of for the first time.

Melvin Llewellyn “Rus” Wilson Jr. ’78

Integrity was everything to him
A

nyone who spent time in Portsmouth, New Hampshire, during the last few decades probably knew Rus Wilson by sight, if not by name. Tall and sandy-haired, he wore a ready smile for everyone he encountered — and, more often than not, an outlandish tie or suit that would inevitably prompt a smile in response.

“It started with ties,” recalls Rus’s wife, Christine Grady Wilson ’79. “He didn’t understand the whole purpose of wearing ties, so to make it more enjoyable for himself — and others — he started buying colorful ties.” First, Chris says, it was just ties in bright colors. Then came ties with cartoon characters and The Three Stooges, holiday ties and ties representing various sports he was involved with as Portsmouth High School’s athletic director and the city of Portsmouth’s recreation director.

Inspired by the intentionally garish outfits of professional golfer John Daly, Rus soon began collecting suits from the “Loud Mouth Golf” line Daly popularized. He wore his first purchase — a white sport coat peppered with brightly colored polka-dots — to a Portsmouth High awards ceremony, “and that was the beginning,” Chris says. “He liked making other people smile and he obviously didn’t take himself too seriously.”

After Rus died on Aug. 31, 2020, Chris was inundated with letters from individuals who wanted to share how he had made a difference in their lives. “He did it quietly and with no fanfare,” she says. “From running to Walmart to buy a bat for a kid who needed one to giving grandparents rides from the parking lot to one of the sports fields because it was hard for them to walk that far … almost nothing was an imposition for him. He made a difference wherever he could, with whatever he had.”

Among the many who echoed Chris’ sentiments in their own public tributes to Rus was Portsmouth mayor Rick Becksted. “Rus just always loved being with the kids, the sports, the energy,” says Becksted. “He’d do anything, turn himself inside out for anyone, to do whatever it took at any great lengths, no matter what the job was.”

Rus’ 42-year career made him Portsmouth’s second longest-serving city employee, and his two children with Chris, Scott and Julie, grew up understanding that being “Rus’ kids” came with certain responsibilities. “Being the son of a public figure had its challenges,” says Scott. “I knew I always had the spotlight on me whether it was in athletics, academics or just walking around in public — it didn’t help that I look exactly like him.” Luckily, Scott says, his father prepared him for life from a young age, coaching him to hold doors and say, “yes, ma’am” or “yes, sir” to his elders — even if no one else did. “It was always in his mantra that we would do what is right, even if we were the only ones doing it.”

As Rus’ daughter, Julie had it a little easier. “I’ve always been honored to be his daughter and so proud when people would ask, ‘Rus is your dad?’” she says. “I knew while some wise comment teasing me about having him as a dad would probably come next, I also knew I came from the best kind of guy there was.”

Born and raised in Portsmouth, Rus earned a degree in criminal justice at the University of Maine, thinking he’d become a state police officer. But he ended up taking a job at Portsmouth’s Connie Bean Community Center, a place he’d spent much of his youth, and soon went back for a second undergraduate degree in recreation management from UNH, followed by a master’s degree in management from Antioch University New England. “Rus didn’t really enjoy school,” Chris notes, “and we always marveled at the fact that he ended up with two bachelor’s degrees and a masters!”

High school sweethearts, Chris and Rus had mutual crushes as junior high bandmates but didn’t start dating until Chris’ freshman year at Portsmouth High School, when her older sister Kathy Grady ’76 threw her a surprise birthday party and invited Rus. The couple stayed together through high school and college, but Chris says she had no inkling when they first got together that they’d one day raise a family together — or that they’d eventually add closets to their home to hold Rus’ massive collection of suits, hats, costumes, make-up, flashing sneakers and ties.

“I was proud to be Rus Wilson’s wife because I saw every day how he strived to make other’s lives happier,” she says — an effort that included dressing up as the Easter bunny and purchasing a single carrot at the grocery store, bringing an assortment of suits to rotate through at friends’ wedding receptions, and Christmas caroling in downtown Portsmouth with the entire family dressed in matching holiday-themed onesies. “He’d say to me, ‘let’s make Portsmouth friendlier, one person at a time.’”

Andrew Powers Minigan ’14
Andrew Powers Minigan ’14
He was a “dream student,” a respected academic and a joyful spirit
H

eather Muir and Andrew Minigan’s love story both did and didn’t begin at UNH.

Both psychology majors and self-identified “overachievers” in the class of 2014, the pair regularly sat together in professor Jan Tornick’s behavioral analysis class in Conant Hall. “We were both competitive, and we studied together in an attempt to assess each other’s performance, but it was really because we enjoyed each other’s company,” Heather recalls. “I always knew that he was smarter than me but would never admit it. He was brilliant, naturally curious and outspoken, almost to an irksome degree when you are in competition.”

Indeed, it was with some “chagrin” that Heather watched Andrew earn the Carroll Award, given to the most outstanding senior in psychology, when they graduated, and the pair went different directions for several years. Heather moved to the West Coast and Andrew headed to the Harvard Graduate School of Education, where he earned a master’s degree and found what he saw as his life’s calling: the betterment of education.

At Harvard, Andrew was “a very welcome and lively presence in the seminar room — much appreciated by fellow students and faculty alike,” recalls Harvard psychologist and graduate professor Paul Harris. That description doesn’t surprise UNH associate professor of psychology Brett Gibson, who recalls Andrew frequently coming up after class with insightful questions at the ready. “It was a dark classroom with no windows, but Andrew brightened the class up for me,” Gibson recalls. “He had this great enthusiasm for learning, and I could see early on that he was going to be quite successful.”

While at Harvard, Andrew also interned at the Right Question Institute (RQI), a role that would become his full-time position. Both RQI codirector Dan Rothstein and colleague Sarah Westbrook recall Andrew being “in his element” at the educational nonprofit, where he wrote grants, published articles and traveled around the country leading professional development sessions for professors, all while working on his doctorate in education from Northeastern. Sarah recalls his remarkable ease when the duo presented to a room of “important, impressive people” at the Library of Congress. “I had an outbreak of hives from sheer nerves; meanwhile Andrew’s self-effacing humor won over the entire room,” she says. “I can’t overstate how well-liked and respected Andrew was, not just by our staff, but by hundreds of educators, organizational leaders and partners.”

Andrew was at RQI when he reconnected with Heather after she moved back to New England to pursue her own doctoral degree. The onetime rivals quickly recognized their tremendous compatibility. “Above and beyond Andrew’s quick wit, what I loved most about him was his unequivocal knack for making every person in his life feel special,” Heather says. Andrew was only 29 when he died suddenly on Sept. 19, 2020, the result of a pulmonary embolism.

In the wake of his death, many who knew Andrew at UNH rallied to raise funds to furnish the psychology department’s child research laboratory with new equipment in his memory. Michelle Leichtman is among Andrew’s former professors who consider it a fitting tribute. “Andrew was a dream student, but also an exceptional person and a beautiful spirit,” she says. “When I think of him, in my mind’s eye I always hear the deep, warm belly laugh that so often greeted me when I entered the classroom. He was a deep thinker and a serious student, but the main motivating feature of his character that stood out to me was his joy.”

David Pillemer recalls Andrew’s academic chops in the context of the senior honors thesis he completed on autobiographical memory, creatively utilizing priests as his participants. Prior studies had targeted adults’ memories of commonly experienced landmark events, such as getting married or having a child; Andrew wondered about the memories of individuals who did not experience these traditional milestones. “Andrew and I drove the winding back roads of New Hampshire, tracking down a senior priest who Andrew skillfully persuaded to recruit fellow priests for his study,” Pillemer recalls. “This was an especially demanding research project for an undergraduate honors thesis, but I had no doubt that Andrew was more than up to the task. He was a joy to work with and just a wonderful human being.”

Heather takes comfort in knowing his professors saw him the same way she did — and always will. “Andrew’s lifelong dream was to have a corner office at a university as a tenured professor where he would be able to wear his elbow-patched tweed jackets and truly look the part of the academic,” she says. “Although I will never get to witness that version of him, it’s how I will always remember Andrew P. Minigan.”
