Rice Mortuary-Torrance

Since 1927, we have helped Los Angeles families create truly unique and meaningful ceremonies to honor loved ones' lives. For several years prior to social distancing and recent outdoor event requirements our experienced staff has pioneered providing highly personalized off-site tributes at unique outdoor venues.

Please call us, we will gather some initial information and when appropriate bring your loved one into our care. Call 24 hours a day, 7 days a week (310) 792-7575. Next complete and email us the "Information Needed Later", in our "Resources / FAQ's" section or we can gather this information by phone daily 8:30am-4:30pm.

Whether your choice is for burial or cremation or even if burial or cremation has already occurred elsewhere, Lighthouse Memorials & Receptions helps you with everything from a traditional funeral to the most unique and personalized life celebration. You have limitless options - a church, cemetery, one of our exceptional ceremony and reception centers, the beach, a botanic garden - choose what honors a life and let us handle the rest.

Honoring family traditions are important and we are here to help answer any questions you may have regarding a possible viewing, location of services or a life celebration, and other personal customized touches to honor a life. We work with cemeteries locally, in all of the nation, and internationally as well.

Breathe in fresh air and the fragrant scent of botanicals at a local outdoor garden that creates a beautiful, natural backdrop to honor your loved one's life. Trust our caring, detail-oriented staff to secure the location, safely distance the seating and add thoughtful touches from live music to catering and more.
