This name came to me about a year or two ago when I was toying with the idea of opening a clothing boutique. The name has a special meaning to me that I’d love to share with you...
 
There once was a little boy in Germany who lived in the midst of Nazi rule during World War II. He had a very simple life with his family and appreciated the little things, even the smallest crust of bread. In the summers, he would work on a farm and after about a week of hard work his payment would only be 1 bag of potatoes that he would take home to his family. They lived on very, very little. When this boy was 15 years old he and his family made a plan to escape East Germany to live peacefully and freely in America. The journey was a very difficult one, but with some huge miracles, they were all able to make it to America to live together in this free country.  
 
This 15-year-old boy grew up, met and married his wife, and built a home with land big enough for horses and a small herd of buffalo. He raised his buffalo for about 40 years. He truly lived the American dream, his dream! He and his wife had 8 children and among them turned out to be the love of my life and my best friend, my husband, Toby.  

My father-in-law, Klaus Goeckeritz is a true German cowboy! He passed away in 2020 but his legacy will live on forever. Every time I see a buffalo it reminds me of him. He was such a hard worker, he knew what he wanted and he went after it. What a beautiful life he made for his family.

The white Buffalo is extremely rare and is very sacred among the Native Americans. I chose to name my boutique after the white Buffalo. Hoping it too will be unique, different and in its own way stand out among the rest.
