History

Special exterior at Halverson, Stone & Myers MortuaryHalverson, Stone & Myers Mortuary has been an important part of our community since its founding as Halverson-Leavell Mortuary in 1954 when Henry Halverson and his brother-in-law, Albert "Babe" Leavell, decided to expand their successful San Pedro mortuary business into the Torrance area. As was common of the time, Halverson-Leavell Mortuary was opened right across the street from Stone & Myers Mortuary, which had been serving the community of Torrance since 1921.

In 1983, Stone & Myers Mortuary teamed together with Halverson-Leavell Mortuary to combine their many years of experience serving the community into Halverson, Stone & Myers Mortuary. The newer, more modern Halverson-Leavell location was chosen to house the newly christened Halverson, Stone & Myers Mortuary with its majestic 50-foot copper steeple. Our beautiful architecture even helped place our facility on the local Historic Homes Walk.

"Halverson Stone & Myers are the best mortuary to entrust our departed loved ones. They're not only for money but to assist and care for you and the departed during the most difficult times. I actually had inquired to the popular mortuaries, Before contacting Halverso, Stone & Myers, but NONE of them comes close to HS&M. One lady from the popular mortuary even told me that I only have 30 minutes for the viewing and I told her, our friends are coming from San Diego and if they got caught in the traffic, they might not view my husband, to which she replied 'that is our policy'. You are grieving and this is not the attitude you want to receive. Then I called Halverson, they assured me of the NO pressure viewing from 10am to 3pm. I was so happy more so when Letty and Robert assured me that if needs arises, they can still extend the time for additional 30 minutes. These people are the ones that is most needed during our difficult times. My visitors at the viewing were all praised to HS&M and they will recommend and use this company if need arises. I got referred to by someone who's mother was under the care of HS&M and they were right. Now, I will proudly recommend this company to everybody. Thank you HS&M. Please love the people you have, they are your company's most valued asset."

"Halverson Stone and Myers provided so much help guidance, and respect for my family during the most difficult time in our lives. From the time of our loss through the service, and to the scattering of ashes they took care of everything, and even changed things to make everything just perfect for our family. I can't thank them, and their staff enough for all that they did for us."

"The Mortuary staff and services exceeded my expectations as to how things should be handled. They were prompt, very professional with all things considered. I had to change my service plans twice and they did not show any frustration, they were in control and comforting the whole time. The services were as good as it gets. I salute everyone that was involved, especially Robert. He worked with me throughout my worse times and ensure all aspects were carefully discussed."
