Note:
Robert "Buddy" Schallman (1924-2004, pictured right) was a lifelong resident of Shaker Heights, Ohio. For fifty years he bought and ran Phillips Syrup Corporation, a Cleveland manufacturer of sundae toppings, milkshake bases, pancake syrups and other sweets. Together with his wife Miriam B. Schallman (nee Berkman, 1928-2017, pictured left)-who he met in Boston before marrying in 1948-and two daughters, the family resided in a brick Georgian Colonial house designed by prominent Cleveland architect Munroe "Monty" Copper in 1926-27. Both Robert and Miriam were avid golfers; their travels throughout the US and abroad often revolved around the sport. They were members of the Banyan Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, and spent winters in Palm Beach before moving there permanently in the 1990s. Both were known for their senses of humor and loved to attend parties and dance with large groups of friends, in addition to serving as energetic and philanthropic members of their community in Cleveland.
Property from the Estate of Robert and Miriam Schallman, Shaker Heights, Ohio
