Truly since antiquity, the European laurel (Laurus nobilis) has been a deeply rooted presence in human cultures across the globe. Native to the Mediterranean region, this tree was the symbol for acclaim and success in Greco-Roman civilization, a tradition that is carried forward to this day in the laurel-wreath crowning of our Olympic champions and with the honoring of Nobel Prize laureates. In cuisines around the world, the “bay leaves” of this remarkable plant are commonly used as a seasoning in soups and stew dishes. Come and visit Cypress Lawn Arboretum soon, talk a walk, and visit our specimen European laurel for yourself. Learn more here: https://www.cypresslawn.com/about/memorial-park/arboretum/

A big part of what we do at Cypress Lawn is about celebrating life. We recently gathered to celebrate the birthday of one of our favorite associates. Josefina Pablo, known to us as "Auntie Jo," has been serving as an Advance Planning Consultant since 2000. That’s 23 years which would be an amazing number, but here is another – she just turned 93. Auntie Jo comes to work every day and typically helps 8-10 families a month plan their final needs in advance. She is pictured here with our President and CEO Bob Gordon. “Josefina is a shining star and an inspiration to all of us,” Gordon said.
