Ungerman was one of the founders of Neighbor for Neighbor along with Fr. Dan Allen. He was a man of great passion for the underserved on Tulsa and expended his energy to attain the values he held dear. Not only was he involved in Neighbor for Neighbor, but also in the founding of the Day Center for the Homeless and the expansion on the Indian Health Care System. He also served as long-time Chair of the Jewish Federation's Community Relations Committee and involved in Tulsa Metropolitan Ministry, Broadway Theater League, B'Nai Emunah Synagogue, United Way and Life Senior Services. Many young lawyers trained at the firm formed by his father Irvine E. Ungerman, and which Maynard joined after serving in the JAG Corps of the Air Force. They learned of his analytical abilities and step-by-step method of dealing with complex issues. They were taught the dignity of the practice of the law. Maynard trained at Stanford Law School, as well as Stanford undergraduate, and exhibited unwavering loyalty to that institution. Born in Topeka, Kansas, on December 5, 1929 while his father attended Law School. His parents, Hanna and Irvine, moved to Tulsa, where Maynard grew up and graduated from Will Rogers High School. Establishing some life long friendships along the way, his passionate character drew him into a love of politics, Stanford sports, honoring his family and those who were less fortunate. He was a true humanist unable to characterize persons by their race, religion or financial status. His life's work was not only the practice of the Law but also trying to re-create Tulsa into a city of great benefit for all who lived here. Until the time of his demise, he never quit trying to help the underprivileged and the underserved in our City.
