Memorial to my Dad, Gerhard Buchner…

My dad is finally released from suffering. He was 77, and passed this morning 7:20 German time, after having spent all his time in hospitals since December last year, following complications from a triple bypass operation.

Hinterland Herb Co. – Worst Customer Service Ever – Avoid this Company

It has come to my attention via my good friend of mine, that a U.S. company called Hinterland Herb Co. have behaved in a truly unbelievable way, after being contacted by her about wishing to buy their organic catnip from their Etsy shop.
