Buffy Cafritz and her lifelong quest to bring Washington together Roxanne Roberts © Ron Galella/Ron Galella Collection /Getty Images Bill and Buffy Cafritz attend the Kennedy Centers Honors Gala on December 4, 1983 in Washington. (Ron Galella/Ron Galella Collection/Getty Images) Buffy Cafritz had a look. The eyebrows would go up, the smile would fade, a silent but oh-so-sharp rebuke to the rude, the entitled, the indecorous. She did
not suffer fools. As one of the last great hostesses and philanthropists in Washington, she believed in discretion, in manners, in bipartisanship. She believed that civility trumped politics, that people should be judged by their actions instead of their party affiliation. And she spent six decades in the nation’s capital trying to make it so.
