Ralph was born in Harlingen to Sal and Socorro Torres. Ralph grew up with five siblings in a family that embraced and instilled Catholic values. He graduated high school from St.Joseph’s Academy in Brownsville. Ralph was passionate about helping people and thought pursuing a career in funeral service would be a perfect opportunity. He earned his Funeral Service and Embalmer License from the Dallas Institute of Funeral Service in 1990. Ralph moved back to the valley and continued his education, earning a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration in 1995.

Ralph made Weslaco his home in 1996 and is a self-employed accountant, funeral director, embalmer, and pre-need counselor. He has been helping families in the mid-valley for many years. Ralph joined our team in 2020 and is passionate about celebrating lives and helping families.

When Ralph is not directing funerals, he works as an accountant for D&J Site Construction, LLC. Ralph is also an avid sports fan and spends many weekends organizing basketball tournaments for our youth. He also coaches Team Elite, a youth basketball team. Ralph is grounded in his faith and the proud father of two Texas A&M graduates, Miranda and Ralph Torres. He loves to catch an Aggie game with his kids when he can get away.
