Before July 1, 1905 formal death records were not kept in California.Each county was able choose what to do about deaths.Some counties ignored them and didn't record any.Los Angeles County kept a ledger book and deaths were simoply a line item in the ledger with very little information.I found the following:
18 Jan 1903, D W Lewis, age 73, born Canada, died of senility, retired, reported by Dr Fox.
That's all it says, no mention of relations.I was unable to find any news item or obit in either the LA Herald or the LA Times.
