Seriously, we really do want to thank everyone for all they do, and we even have an article showing our appreciation. But what would an issue of Parliament be without a little CYA – so, we have a couple articles on protecting yourself if you say thanks to your employees or even if you want to share a thank-you from a customer. Yup, it’s all about saying thanks. So, sit back, take a minute (say thanks first) then read the latest issue of Parliament. And, thank you.

ABOUT PARLIAMENT
The owl has long been associated with wisdom, longevity and truth. They’ve appeared for centuries in old texts (and sometimes new texts) related to death and to justice.

That said, Lemasters is a blend of two things: deathcare and law.

The owl has been a part of our company symbolism since our founding (the three colored circles in the logo for Lemasters are inspired by the shape of an owl’s eye).

And the name of this publication? A Parliament is what you call a group of owls.
