We ruled the world ahead of us. We were going to change it! Between our boundless energy, optimism and lack of any fear, we dreamed big together and did great things. I never met another ‘Charlie’ nor loved anyone so deeply,” Buffman posted on Facebook.Yul Brynner famously played the title role of “The King and I” for a Buffman production at the Jackie Gleason Theater in Miami Beach in 1976 — and drove Cinnamon near crazy with his demands for a more fitting dressing room.

Charles L. Schultze, economist in two Democratic administrations, dies at 91 - Washington Post
Monday, October 10, 2016University of Maryland in 1960.In 1947, he married Rita Hertzog. She died in 2014. Survivors include six children, Karen Hoffman of Raleigh, N.C., Kevin Schultze of Jackson, Wyo., Lynn Jones of Fort Lauderdale, Fla., Kathleen Schultze of Williamstown, Mass., Carol Kasunic of Darnestown, Md., and Mary Chris Weintrob of Bethesda, Md.; a brother, Bill Schultze of Alexandria; 16 grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren.Dr. Schultze’s passion for precision was not confined to economics. It reached back to the wording of the citation that accompanied his Bronze Star Medal for combat in Germany (he also received the Purple Heart). The incident occurred on April 2, 1945, five weeks before the end of the war in Europe.He was standing up behind a .50 caliber machine gun mounted on a Jeep during a reconnaissance patrol when enemy machine gun fire raked the area. “Instead of taking cover from the murderous fire, he manned his machine gun on his vehicle, being in an exposed position, until wounded,” it said.In an interview for this obituary, he said the rest of the citation was “jazzed up” by superiors to make him look more...
