About
Occupying nearly 150 acres, Westminster Memorial Park and Mortuary brings the uplifting and pastoral beauty of the countryside into the heart of Orange County. We have an estimated 1,300 trees – probably more trees per acre than other cemetery or memorial parks in the area – along with statuary, fountains, a stream, waterfall, and a lake. We have an on-site crematory and florist, so all of your needs can be provided for in one location. Other highlights of our award-winning park include the Mausoleum of Eternal Light, which boasts two interior streams and a large fountain along with three large skylights that give the mausoleum its name. The large pagoda and tiered private family estates in our Garden of Peaceful Eternity are well-known and loved by local residents. This garden has quadrupled in size since it was first developed in 1996, due to the great demand by the community. Our beautiful main chapel, easily seen from Beach Boulevard, is a landmark in central Orange County, and is often the setting for various community events, such as the Celebration of Life ceremony and Escape School® programs for children. Today, we are proud to be a member of the Dignity Memorial® network of funeral, cremation and cemetery service providers. Dignity Memorial providers offer exclusive benefits, including National Transferability of Prearranged Services, the Bereavement Travel Program, the 24-Hour Compassion Helpline® and access to an acclaimed grief management library. As North America's premier provider of funeral, cremation and cemetery services, the Dignity Memorial brand is your assurance of quality, value, caring service and exceptional customer satisfaction.

I would first like to say that unless you are fascinated with architecture or have a loved one here, this would not be a stop on anyone's itinerary. The indoor mausoleum was designed by the same folks that designed South Coast Plaza and is very tranquil and beautiful to view. As to the other sections there is nothing noteworthy and is quite stark for most of the area. The pagoda is interesting but once again from a visual standpoint is poor due to a major street less than 100 feet away and a golf range behind that (how lovely golfing at the cemetery-ODD) . There is two sections that are interesting, one is potter's field, and an islamic section towards the very back.

Yesterday I went to decorate my Family graves for Christmas. In the past few years the grounds have been horrible . To my surprise they got new grounds keepers that have it all cleaned up, mowed and even edged around the stones. I even had problems getting my Grandparents vases out of the ground and one of the grounds keepers working in the area got them out of the ground for me. The new grounds keepers seem to really care how even the older areas look which makes me really happy.
