Maxine Morse ’51H
The “ultimate connector,” she was a tireless advocate for UNH

he realization that Maxine Morse didn’t attend UNH might come as a surprise to anyone who met her at the Whittemore Center, where she held season tickets for men’s hockey; at the Paul Creative Arts Center, where she regularly took in theatre, dance and music performances; or at any number of campus events that would find her chatting with university leadership and the students who held her endowed scholarship. In fact, she was a proud member of Cornell University’s class of 1945, for which she served as class president and with which she eagerly participated in her 75th reunion via Zoom last year. But she was equally proud of her connections to UNH, alma mater of two of her four children, Beth Kiendl, Morris “Morey” Goodman ’85, Jane Goodman and Ellen Goodman ’79, as well as her late husband, Richard Morse ’51 — the namesake of Morse Hall.

“Max knew everybody,” says UNH Athletic Director Marty Scarano, who recalls Morse as one of the first people he met when he started at UNH in 2000. “And there was nothing she loved more than connecting people from different parts of her life who she thought might share common interests.” In Scarano’s case, Morse had read up on him and noted his interest in Shaker culture. A board member at New Hampshire’s famed Canterbury Shaker Village, she wasted no time passing along the names of several people there she thought he should get to know. “Twenty-one years later, I’m on Canterbury’s board of corporators,” Scarano laughs. “That’s just vintage Maxine.”

Another connection Morse forged was between Scarano and the Hon. John T. Lynch ’74, New Hampshire governor from 2005 to 2013. Morse had met Lynch as a member of “Republicans for Lynch,” organizing and raising money for the governor’s successful first election campaign. “Maxine was just incredible,” Lynch says. “She was like the Energizer bunny. If she cared about you, if she believed in you, she would stick with you no matter what.” Importantly, that steadfastness wasn’t influenced by differing opinions; “she and I didn’t always see eye to eye on every issue,” Lynch recalls, “but that never had any impact on our friendship.”

The issues about which Morse cared were many and diverse. She counted among her proudest achievements serving as the founding director of the Greater Manchester Childcare Association, the first federally funded day care center in New Hampshire. As chairwoman of the 1975 NH Commission on Laws Affecting Mental Health, she worked on legislative efforts to protect and support citizens with mental illness and other disabilities. During her tenure, some 15 proposals were enacted into laws, including the abolition of the state’s right to involuntarily sterilize residents at county and state facilities and the reformation of New Hampshire laws that had previously placed the burden of proof on victims in rape cases.

“She also did pivotal work that ultimately changed the laws around how we speak about people with intellectual disabilities,” notes UNH Senior Director of Academic Communications Kim Billings ’81, who in 2012 nominated Morse for a Granite State Award, a UNH honor given to individuals who have made exceptional contributions to the state. “She was relentless about the causes she believed in. Her attention and energy were formidable.”

Scarano will be the first to note that those formidable attentions occasionally came at a price. Every Monday morning following a men’s hockey series at the Whitt, he could count on a phone call from Morse to analyze the games in detail — win or lose. “She was very astute, and very critical,” he says, “particularly when it came to the officiating. I’d pick up the phone and she’d be saying, ‘We got too many offsides calls in Saturday’s game, Marty. Why is that?’”

Morse’s no-nonsense style was hard earned. Divorced young, she raised her four “strong-willed” children as a working single parent and met Richard Morse, a lawyer, when they both worked on four-term U.S. Representative Perkins Bass’s election campaign, marrying in 1964. During her husband’s tenure as chairman of the University System of New Hampshire board of trustees, UNH joined the long list of causes with which Morse was engaged. “I’d hear from her about the stories and photos we ran, particularly those she thought could be better,” recalls Billings, at the time editor of UNH’s “Campus Journal” and later a close personal friend.

Widowed in 1992, Morse went on to establish the Richard A. Morse Scholarship in the department of theatre and dance in her husband’s honor to support UNH students in the performing arts. She was actively engaged with the joint UNH-Cornell Shoals Marine Laboratory at the Isles of Shoals until her death on Aug. 23, 2020, at the age of 96.

“Maxine was a force of nature,” Scarano says. “You wanted to do the things she wanted you to do, because they weren’t for her own benefit or self-promotion; they were always about making the cause or organization she was championing better. That for sure included UNH.”

The Hon. Stephen Merrill ’69
He was the first UNH graduate to become governor, and a quintessential family man

t the end of his second term as New Hampshire’s 77th governor in 1996, the Hon. Stephen Merrill ’69 was 50 years old, still relatively young in the world of politics. Though he had gained the office on his first try and won his second election with some 70 percent of the popular vote, he made the decision not to run for a third term. His two sons, Ian and Stephen, had been born while he was in office, and he wanted to spend more time with them.

“As governor, there were remarkable demands on his time. Sometimes he would take a break to come home for dinner, help with baths, read stories and then return to his office,” recalls Heather Merrill ‘88JD, who met her husband while working as a hearings examiner at the New Hampshire Department of Safety just months after graduating from UNH Franklin Pierce School of Law, and married him in 1991. “He wanted the boys to be with him whenever it was appropriate and did his best to be available regardless of his schedule.”

Jean Barnes, who was with the Merrills when Stephen launched his campaign at UNH Manchester in 1992 and served as the family’s self-described “chief cook and bottlewasher” during Merrill’s four years in the governor’s mansion, Bridges House, likewise has vivid memories of the governor carrying his sons’ car seats, bringing his boys to events and taking every opportunity possible to incorporate his two toddlers into the hectic and often unpredictable reality of public life. “Being governor didn’t change him,” she says. “He was exactly the same his last day in office as he was his first: a devoted husband and father, and he treated me like a part of his family. You never heard anyone say a bad thing about him.”

A popular governor — his second-term election margin was one of the widest in recent state history — Merrill was also an effective one. Having served previously as Gov. John T. Sununu’s legal counsel, chief of staff and attorney general, he entered the office prepared to take on a daunting challenge: meeting an anticipated $40 million shortfall in state revenues. His success in doing so ultimately earned him an unprecedented two-time recognition as the “most fiscally responsible governor in America” from The Wall Street Journal. He also coined and popularized the phrase “The New Hampshire Advantage,” which he described as meaning, “we don’t spend more money than we have, we pay our debts, and we permit local people to make decisions on their money,” and on his first day in office, ordered all the gates that barred state toll booths removed.

Fellow UNH-educated governor Hon. John H. Lynch ’74, who met Merrill 25 years ago (fittingly enough, through his son Hayden’s pre-K friendship with Ian Merrill), says the move was emblematic of how much his predecessor cared about the state. “The gates weren’t welcoming, and they weren’t efficient,” Lynch says. “They weren’t particularly New Hampshire. Removing them really reflected a much more accurate picture of who we are as a state.”

Reflecting an accurate picture of the state was important to Merrill. Heather Merrill remembers the way, throughout his terms as governor, her husband would frequently adopt the speech patterns and even accents of people he would meet in different parts of the state. “He wasn’t being critical,” she explains. “Half the time, I thought he did it unconsciously.” Barnes recalls it serving to make him more approachable and to put his constituents at ease.

Both during and after his time as governor, Merrill would spend a day during the holiday season ringing bells for the Salvation Army with friend Gary Singer. In later years, Lynch joined him. “I was probably more recognizable, because I’d been in office more recently,” Lynch recalls, “but Steve was more gregarious, and we’d pull people in by trash-talking each other, all in good fun.” Heather Merrill says one time when it was just Merrill and Singer, a man stopped in front of her husband and told him he recognized him. “Steve said ‘you do?’, just to egg him on,” she recalls. “The man responded, ‘Yup! You’re the weatherman at WMUR! He and Gary laughed about that for years.”

Following his time in public office, Merrill returned to practicing law, a vocation he’d originally pursued as part of his commitment to the military (an ROTC cadet at UNH as well as a Phi Beta Kappa graduate and the first in his family to attend college, he was inducted into UNH’s ROTC Hall of Fame in 2009). Former New Hampshire Supreme Court Justice and UNH Franklin Pierce School of Law dean John T. Broderick, who was Merrill’s law partner for many years, says law was yet another arena in which Merrill’s innate leadership qualities and keen intelligence shone. When Merrill passed away on Sept. 5, 2020, at the age of 74, Broderick reflected on their long friendship, which began in the 1970s and deepened over the decades — despite the fact that Merrill was a staunch Republican and Broderick an equally dedicated Democrat.

“I loved Steve Merrill; there’s really no other way to say it,” he says. “He was a really gifted public servant, a talented lawyer, and you couldn’t ask for a better friend. He was the single most interesting person that I have ever known.”

Robert Coffey Jr. ’05G
He was a guiding light for members of the university’s LGBTQ+ community

hen asked what one thing she wants people to know about her son Bob, Jackie Coffey reaches for a Maya Angelou quote: I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel. “I truly believe that was one of my son’s greatest gifts,” Jackie says. “For all those people, soon to become friends, that Bob met, they never forgot him because of the way he made them feel. Valued. Understood. Included. Important.”

Jackie recalls taking Bob and his younger brother, Tim, pumpkin picking when they were children. Tim chose a standard pumpkin, but Bob came back with one that “was just awful. Big warts, broken stem, smashed on one side. I said, ‘Are you sure that’s the one you want?’ He said, ‘Mom, if I don’t take this one, no one else will.’ That was just him.”

Both Jackie and Tim agree that Bob’s innate need to make sure everyone felt seen and included perhaps traces back to Bob not always feeling that he could be himself growing up. The two brothers were three years apart, but it wasn’t until Bob left for college at UVM that they became close. “Growing up, he was very introverted,” Tim recalls. “Bob really blossomed and was a much happier person once he came out.”

“I remember he called from school to tell us he was gay,” Jackie recalls. “I wasn’t on the phone, but I could hear my husband’s side of the conversation. I could tell Bob was saying important things just by my husband’s demeanor and the look on his face. At one point, my husband said, ‘We know. And we wouldn’t want you any other way.’ And then Bob knew that he, and anyone he brought home, would always know that our home was a safe place for them to be.”

Once he was able to fully be himself, Bob became the extravert his large circle of friends remembers. “He was so good at staying connected with people, like no one else I’ve ever seen in my life,” says Jenn Woodside, UNH alumni relations director of university engagement. “It was one of his biggest strengths. You knew he had a gazillion friends and people he cared about, but he always made you feel special.”

Paula DiNardo, coordinator of the UNH Study Away USA program, echoes that sentiment. “He connected everyone to each other, too, and just folded everyone into his life. How many people can say, ‘I prioritize every friendship in my life’ or ‘I know my friends’ whole families’? That was Bob. Once you were his friend, you were part of his family.”

While earning his master’s in public administration at UNH, he served as a hall director in the Mini Dorms and a coordinator for LGBTQ programming for the Office of Multicultural Student Affairs (now the Beauregard Center). As someone who had struggled with the experience of finding himself, he served as a resource for others who came UNH with similar challenges, and ultimately discovered work in student affairs as the best avenue for tapping into his natural gifts of connecting people and maintaining those friendships. His most recent position was as assistant director of international admissions at Michigan State University — a role that pulled together his lifelong interests of travel, other countries and cultures, and education. Says his husband Steven Chang, “He showed such care and commitment to his students, and knew he had to cultivate his work in student affairs. He didn’t always feel like he had a place in the field, because he didn’t have the same formal training that others had. He self-funded his conference trips, made friends and built a vast community of colleagues.”

Once Bob had built this community, however he maintained it fiercely. “He would always want to see everyone — go for lunch or coffee — at these conferences, but there was never enough time,” Steven recalls. Instead, Bob would organize what came to be known as “family dinner.” In advance of each conference, he would set up a Facebook event for a night or two beforehand and find a restaurant nearby that would accommodate 40 – 50 people, giving everyone a chance to connect before they got too busy. It was creative way for everyone to see each other, and something they looked forward to each year.

Bob died July 12, 2020, at the age of 48, four weeks after being diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Knowing his time was short, he and Steven married just two days before his death. Both Jackie and Tim Coffey were able to drive from Rhode Island to Michigan for the wedding — Tim officiated — but, because of the pandemic, they have not yet been able to hold a memorial service. Tim says the lack of closure gives a false sense of his older brother still being here, and he looks for ways to “sort of spend time” with him — particularly through music and through his own son, Ryan. “It’s uncanny, almost impossible, how similar they are,” Tim says. “Ryan’s mannerisms, the way he walks, the sound and cadence of his voice, the fact that he’s a lefty. He reminds me so much of my brother. It’s like a piece of him is still here.”
