Our Story

Fifty years of dignified, affordable care

A short look at how we came to be, and why we still do this work.

The Alpha Society was founded in Burbank in 1974 on a simple promise: dignified care at a price every family can afford. Five decades later, that promise still guides every decision we make.

We are a small, independent team that has cared for more than 10,000 families across Los Angeles County. We understand that losing someone you love is one of the hardest experiences a person can go through, and we are here to walk alongside you with patience and honesty.

Whether you prefer to plan in person at our Burbank office, by phone, or entirely online from home, we are here to guide you at your pace. No pressure, no upselling. Every family deserves dignified care, and we mean that.

What we believe

Affordable care, with dignity

The four ideas that shape how we work with every family.

Affordable care with dignity

Affordability and dignity are not opposites. Every family we serve receives the same level of attention, no matter the package.

Licensed and accountable

We operate under California funeral establishment license FD 1274 and meet every requirement of the FTC Funeral Rule. Every itemized cost is disclosed in writing before you commit to anything.

Online convenience, personal help

Begin arrangements from your phone in about ten minutes, or speak with a real person at any hour. Whichever path you choose, the care is the same.

Bilingual care, English & Spanish

Our care team speaks fluent English and Spanish so every family in our community can be guided through these decisions in the language they're most comfortable with.
