The Los Angeles Funeral Home, part of the Mission Funeral Home Family, is holding an Open House for the community today, calling it a time for family appreciation and a building dedication.
Funeral Director Ken Villasenor said the public is welcome to come to the funeral home located at 300 Cheatham St., starting at noon.
He said that a blessing conducted by clergy from St. John the Evangelist Catholic Church in San Marcos will take place at 2 p.m.
Tours will be available of the new facility, he added.
The Open House is set to run until 6 p.m.
