Triumph over hardship. Pay it forward. The power of community. These were the moral codes of Dave Morse (1937-2015), a beloved Vermont Sports Hall of Fame journalist who spent 20 years at the Hardwick Gazette writing "The Morse Code," an all-sports, all-ages column. This biography, with color photos and a foreword by Ross Connelly, editor and co-publisher of the Gazette from 1986 to 2017, chronicles the life of veteran sports editor Dave Morse, whose contributions to the youth of a small community echo across the Green Mountains today. Dave was a widely respected reporter, and an ever-willing conversationalist, yet few readers know the obstacles he faced. Dave overcame trauma and heartbreak to be admired for his empathy, kindness, and generosity to all who knew him. Dave's lasting legacy as the heart of Vermont sports lives on in The Morse Code: Legacy of a Vermont Sportswriter.
