Only close family and friends — which included some lifelong acquaintances from Torrance along with Hollywood stars — were invited to attend Louis Zamperini's funeral Sunday at Hollywood Presbyterian Church. But the city of Torrance, where Zamperini grew up, is now planning its own send-off for the hometown hero.
"It's open to the public," Torrance Mayor Frank Scotto said a few hours before he was to announce the plans at Tuesday night's City Council meeting. "We're encouraging everyone to come and we really hope that Torrance High School alumni will come out in force."
