April 6, 200917 yr Martin was good people. I only met him once for about an hour we spoke about business and a lil about life in general at Siam Paragorn a couple years ago. Even though I was so much younger than him he listened too me and spoke with me in a way that made him feel more like a older brother and less like a lecturing parent. Man he was good people, seriously, he was humble, kind, very active, and had a great sence of humor. I hope were ever his soul rests now, that it is happy and full of joy. RIP Buckwheat, you will surely be missed.

April 6, 200917 yr I woke up this morning, got my coffee and started the computer. First thing I saw was this topic title and was literally stunned by it. I've had the fortune to have met him twice at the CM parties. He's the rare type of person where you very quickly feel you have been pals for ages. R.I.P Marty.
April 6, 200917 yr May Buckwheat rest in peace. For the last couple of months he used his own portrait as his avatar, the image of the man with a positive outlook on life that he was: Buckwheat, in real life Martin Schulte Gentleman and TaiVisa administrator -- Maestro The single biggest problem in communication is the illusion that it has taken place
April 6, 200917 yr Sad to hear this news. My thoughts are with his family & friends, may he rest in peace.
April 6, 200917 yr When Marty told me in November that he was finally losing his battle with cancer his main wishes were that he hoped that he could live long enough to see his son`s passing out parade in March and to spend some time with his grandchildren before he passed away. I was truly amazed at how brave he was in handling his situation. Marty was a person who lived life to the full and he had a unique ability of being able to make friendships. His trustworthy and caring personality and generocity coupled with his enthusiasm to listen and help others made him a very special person. His ability, intelligence and dedication whilst working in marketing and as an administrator of thaivisa helped put the forum where it is to-day. It was a pleasure to have known Marty and a priviledge to have worked with him. R.I.P. dear friend.
April 6, 200917 yr Shame we lost contact the past year or two. But it's a pleasure to have met you, Martin. RIP.
April 6, 200917 yr I never met Buckwheat, nor did I have his famous ribs, but reading what the other posters have posted, I sure wish I had. Sounds like he was truly great guy. May he rest in peace. Condolences to his family and friends. bridge
