This review is on behalf of the Martinez Family.I wanted to take a moment to thank both Robert and Rodrigo for kindly helping us every step of the way through my brother’s cremation/niche side service. I was kept informed through every step of the process. They made me feed at ease and were easy to get a hold of. At times, they were returning calls/texts messages on there day off or after hours. Thank you very much. You are both great individuals and my family is grateful for all the help you provided us during this difficult time.Thank you.Martinez Family

I like to take this moment to say thank you!!! to the lovely staff at the Westminster memorial park most importantly Ms. Chelsea Mesa. She honored my moms wishes and helped me with everything during these difficult time for me. Everything was well organized perfectly and She even went all out and setup monks to pray at my mom’s funeral. I was really worried on how things were gonna be because we don’t know anybody. Thank you!! For everything y’all have done.

Went extremely well. Very organized and personable. Elizabeth kept me informed of when I could pickup my Fathers ashes. She also told me the process of getting the Death certificates in Orange county. Thank you for a job well done.

Chelsea and her staff along with the grounds crew were amazing throughout a difficult time for our family. The service provided was done with genuine love and care throughout an emotional time. We cannot thank them enough for the peace of mind we felt throughout. Thank you all so much and God bless 🙏

Warren, thank you to you and your team for making this difficult time a little easier. Your experience helped us with every arrangement detail, and your patience allowing us to grieve while at the same time, planning the perfect service for Mom was greatly appreciated. Thank you again!

We had my dads memorial service last night and the man they assigned to a was amazing! His name was Van Walker and we couldn’t have had more of a kind, considerate and helpful person. He went out of his way to make us feel comforted and honored. Thank you Van and Westminster memorial was well represented by you!

Very caring, compassionate people! They were very accommodating in helping us to have the services that our family wanted for our mother. I highly recommend them!

The staff was wonderful. They went above and beyond our expectations. Chelsea was a pleasure to work with. My father would have been very pleased.

Give your loved one the importance of leaving their grave memorably for a week with their flowers YOU NEED TO TELL THE CEMETERY OF THE OPPOSITE THEY WILL THROW THEM AWAY

Losing a loved one is such a difficult time. Then you throw in having to make arrangements for your loved one. We were fortunate enough to have Dignity Westminster Memorial Park Mortuary help us during such a difficult time. The staff and personnel there were amazing and compassionate. Elizabeth assisted us every step of the way, up until we picked up our loved ones remains. She went above and beyond always ensuring we knew she was there to answer any questions or to ensure we felt comfortable with the decisions that we were making. We had a great experience overall.

Unfortunately I’ve been having a bad experience with this place. Everything was fine until I was supposed to be issued a refund over two months ago and still have not received it. I also have not received an update on a headstone that was ordered at that time. I’ve been calling and texting with no results. I have also called to have the over grown grass removed from the vases and when I showed up nothing had been done.

Sadly, my best friend/mother is buried here. The grounds are kept very nice. The grass is green, the birds are chirping, there are even fat squirrels running around. Its peaceful here. There are different sections, waterfalls, mausoleums, statues and a few chapels. We worked with a woman named Virginia here and she was great. RIP mommie 😢

It is with great satisfaction to withdrawal my previous review and share that WMP turned out to be a pleasant host with our family as we celebrated the life of our beloved one. They were gracious in assisting us with a canopy in the event of rain even though we did not utilize there memorial services. We truly appreciate your assistance during this difficult time.

There was some family issues that caused me to change cemetery last minute but I want to thank Warren, he was very professional and available to help when ever a question needed to be answered. This place is a great place to bury a loved one.

My name is Karen Avila i had to put together my sons unexpected funeral at the end of pandemic so Westminister dignity memorial was very very busy at the time but it did not matter they went above and beyond there duties for me and my family. Warren our director made me feel as if he was there for just me anytime i called he answered the receptionist was alway very kind and very knowledgeable it has been an unforgettable experience and i am greatful to all of the members at dignitymemorial in Westminister California

Wendy who was our point of contact for all of the preparations was absolutely delightful, helpful, and very kind. She made sure we were accommodated as much as possible given the special circumstances of the city guidelines due to COVID-19.The chapel, and the set up was done beautifully. Ashley and the team taking care of us the day of the ceremony were very attentive, friendly, and efficient. It was a beautiful ceremony and we could not have asked for more. I like to Thank you for your outstanding service in helping celebrate the life of an extraordinary man who will be missed every minute of every day. God bless🙏

I would like to tell everyone of my, and my sisters heartfelt experience with all of the wonderful employees at Westminster Memorial Park Mortuary, Dignity Memorial. Our Mother passed on the 10Th of April 2021. Our first contacts were Garrett Shull and Emma Birdseye. They came to transport my mothers body. They were both so very respectful and caring with us all. They handled our mom as if she were their own. Elizabeth Mendoza, our funeral arranger was our next contact. Caring, knowledgeable, explained every step and organized everything. Made sure we had everything for our meeting at the mortuary . Where we met with Elizabeth Mendoza, and Larry LaCost assistant Manager Cemetery and Anna Stemmer. Again, very knowledgeable, Caring, but the most important thing was the love and humanity. Ron Grant, Service director gravesite, showed all the love and caring . All of us shared stories funny and sad. And Horacio Berumen, our maintenance gentleman, who opened and closed the Bench my mom and dad both rest in now, handled my folks and my family with the greatest of care. And I don’t want to forget the lovely lady who is the receptionist, the first person we greet, ❤️. Last but not least, Lilly Navas, as we stood and talked to say our goodbyes, I want to say again what a wonderful caring staff . To you all my sister and I thank you from the bottom of our hearts.Kathy Shaw and Vicky Pasley

Robert at Westminster Memorial Park did an amazing job with helping me and my family plan a funeral service. I am very thankful for the service we received during this difficult time in our lives. All the staff was polite and professional.

I found Warren to be very understanding and very helpful in making all the decisions and sign the papers for my fathers burial. I like his very calming voice and his patience. Thank you Warren!!! You have been great to work with!!!!

My mothers passing was the most difficult time of my life. I was at a complete loss and the process of having to plan her funeral was overwhelming. Westminister mortuary was the best place I could have ever gone. They offered me advice and a step by step process of how things would go. I was never pressured to use their services or buy anything that I felt was not needed. Elizabeth our funeral director was the most caring and patient person I have really ever met. She gave us so much respect and time to grieve in own our process. Words can not describe how grateful my family has been to her. The mortuary is beautiful, aswell as the cemetery. From the flower arrangement, the portrait, and slide show of photos everything it was beautifully done. The treated my mom with respect and dignity. This was the best place for my loved one to be honored.

Very professional and truly caring. Robert R . helped my family in coordinating my fathers service and my mothers services less than a year later. He made the process much less stressful than I have heard about.Recommend Westminster Memorial Park highly!

The Funeral Arranger, Warren Roitman, was very helpful and thoroughly. Weve felt very comfortable going through the whole process from reviewing contracts, finalizing service items to Chapel & cremation reservation. The service director on the funeral day was resourceful and proactive. Weve picked Westminster Memorial Park Mortuary for our family pre-arrangements. Weve used it twice and are happy with our choice.

My dad’s sudden passing hit the family hard. When it came to organizing the funeral, Robert did an amazing job. He was very understanding and receptive to our concerns and explained everything to us. The way he organized and arranged the funeral was absolutely beautiful. I know my dad would have been happy with how his service turned out. Larry was also very understanding and informative when it came to the plot and how the burial would go. I can say for sure that I would trust these gentlemen to do an amazing service with my own family.

I must say Warren Roitman, was so very helpful .I can not say enough about him.Very thing turn out so well. That I was very satisfied. Thank you

I’m writing this review to praise both Larry Lacost and Warren Roitman the funeral director and staff.The past December 2019 as well as this past December 2020. Both my grandparents have passed and have side by side plots at Westminister Memorial. Both Larry and Warren were completely compassionate and very helpful in the process of arranging for my grandfather last year and my grandmother this year! They really took the time and effort in giving their expertise to make the experience lovely! As it can be painful to let your loved one’s go and be in paradise. Both their services were executed with dignity and lots of respect. I recommend them in helping anyone to make arrangements for funeral services.Helena F.

Warren at Westminster Memorial Park was absolutely wonderful. He was knowledgeable and very caring. Warren has kept in touch just to see how we were getting along. I lost my granddaughter six months after my daughter and Warren was again very helpful even though the funeral wasnt held there, it was at one of their sister companies. I truly appreciate the love and concern Warren expressed to my family. Thank you.

A very unpleasant experience for me. Grateful i honored my commitments to my parents, however I cannot recommend this business to anyone. A year after the burial, and they still have not updated the grave marker.

Losing a love one is never easy, losing a Mother is one of the most difficult experiences in our life and it gave us great comfort to know that my Mother made the best decision in choosing Westminster Memorial Park for her funeral services. We are pleased with all the services we received and we want to thank them for the patience and the effort they made so that everything would turned out well. This is made it possible for our family to give our Mother a proper good buy.

Our overall experience with Dignity was pleasant and positive. The staffs were polite, attentive and accommodating. The two staffs who left us with a very positive experience are Warren and the African American lady Funeral Director. Although we werent able to have our memorial service inside the chapel due to Covid-19, the tent was large, private and with plenty of parking nearby. It would have been been a 5-star reviews instead of 3.5 if the following issues didnt happened.1. The family counselor named Victor Vu who was assigned to the family for the burial arrangement was unprofessional and unhelpful. Rather than listening and helping the family with finding a solution to provide the required cultural and religious rites for our mom, he was pushing us to get rid of them to make matter simple. His lack of caring and understanding of the family needs was rather disappointed and shocking. He told us at the in-person meeting the service by Westminister Memorial to the family under the signed contract with Dignity was a favor because the service was bought at another Dignitys funeral home despite it was written in the contract that it will be honored at any Dignitys funeral home locations in the country.2. There was a mix up of the flower wreaths at the church and cemetary. We requested for specific wreaths to be taken to the church but the staffs brought them to the cemetary instead. This is not a major issue to our family.3. I hope Funeral Director for the church and burial services named Ron understands the burial service for Vietnamese Catholic is longer than other ones because we have a lot of prayers to say and stay at the cemetary with the decease after burial service is done. We felt a bit rush from reading his body language and gestures. Nonetheless, he did a good job to give us time and accommodate our needs.

My grandmother recently passed away during the pandemic and this location planned a wonderful service for her to rest. Due to the pandemic they would only allow 10 people in the building (chapel) and at the resting plot or they would not continue on with the service. They even have an online stream service for anyone unable to attend to watch at home or on their phone. But overall the service and burial was wonderful and very professionally done. At the end of the service after the priest finished speaking just before the burial a butterfly landed on my grandmothers casket which was very beautiful and very meaningful to us because the same thing happened at my grandfathers funeral. My grandmother can now rest peacefully right next to my grandfather. Thank you for a wonderful service.

I want to thank Westminster Memorial Park, I had my mom’s service June 5, 2020, even though we are in a pandemic with protesting all over the world, and funeral homes really busy I can honestly say her service was beautiful. I am very thankful. Special thanks to Warren Roitman who was just amazing, Cindy who always kept in touch, and Carol who was there at the service. Thank you all! Warren I will never forget you.

My mother passed away on February 13, her birthday. Warren helped me to plan my mothers funeral. I can honestly say the planning was seamless. Everything went so smoothly, the flowers, the setting, the staff...no one, absolutely no one hard sells anything. Which when youre grieving is so appreciated. I had to organize this alone, but because of Warren (and Cindy) I didnt feel alone. You should plan early with loved ones, and purchase ahead of time (like mama did). This makes other decisions so much easier. Thank you to all at WMP / Dignity.

Very professional and helpful staff. Chelsea helped my dad and I plan the funeral service for my mom and she was very friendly, patient, and accommodating with all of our requests for the service. The main chapel where we had my moms service in was beautiful and my family was happy with how everything turned out. One thing to note is that this is a non-secular funeral home, so please take this into consideration when you plan a service here. My family wanted to hold a Catholic funeral service for my mom at the chapel here but since they are not a church, we just needed to plan that portion of the service separately, which included finding a priest, purchasing a funeral pall, and a few other things. Again, just something to keep in mind. Thanks for everything.

Robert Ruiz was caring and compassionate. He professionally and politely helped me through the funeral burial process, answering any questions not only to me but for my siblings as well.Management, especially Robert, is quick to respond no matter what the concern is.Thank you so much for easing my pain and my childrens pain during this unexpected death of my mom. I will always remember the help.I highly recommend Robert and his team.

Mr Ruiz and Mr Vu were very helpful and kind. The process was explained clearly. Mr Ruiz answered all my questions and made himself available, even on the weekends! I am very pleased and thankful. Keep up the good work!

Warren Roitman was assisting me as the Funeral Arranger. Warren made the whole process simple and efficient. He knew just what to say and do to make my family and I comfortable with the process. We experienced no setback or hiccups.

The professionalism of the staff, especially Warren and Larry, was outstanding! My family received excellent service, personalized care and quick follow up to questions. We were made to feel like family during the entire process.

Chelsea Mesa was amazing in assisting with the arrangements for our mom. She and the staff went above and beyond when an illness caused our pastor to not be able to attend. Chelsea stepped right in and everything was seamless. Thank you! From Colin Anderson and family

I have been working with Chelsea at Westminster Memorial Park and Mortuary, and she has been INCREDIBLY helpful throughout this extremely trying time. Shes very knowledgeable, capable, efficient, and extremely kind. Chelsea has guided me every step of the way and she has never lost patience with me, even though our situation probably has been much more challenging than most. She is a true professional and a very fine representative for Westminster Memorial.

This was my second experience arranging funeral services for a parent and it was a much better experience because of Elizabeth Mendoza. I told her about the things that did not go smoothly the first time and she made it her mission to make sure I was completely comfortable with every detail. Her communication and attention to detail was excellent. She handled every change I had (and there were many) with poise and patience. Two days before the service I was able to tell my husband that I could relax and let the professionals do their jobs. Thank you, Elizabeth for a job well-done. Also Ashley was wonderful in her role during the service, as was Pasqual. Cindy has been very accommodating as I am still working with her.

---My mother passed away just a short three weeks ago now and it still bothers me the way your funeral home handled things. My sister neglected to tell me when the viewing was, but yet she was in charge of everything legally as power of attorney. Imagine my shock and surprise when I found out on a Friday night that the viewing was Monday and I had appointments I could not break? Robert at your funeral home said that was the only day they could do the viewing and refused to change the date. It wasnt until a few days later when they decided to change their mind but by then Id already dealt with the frustration of accepting that I was not able to go. Your funeral directors reasoning when I question him was that I was supposed to call him back with a date? He knew full well the reason I didnt call him back was because:A) I was informed by him I was not allowed to make any decisions and everything was decided by my sister andB) We didnt have enough money to pay for the burial yet and they explained that they would do nothing nor reserve a date until we were paid in full.So imagine my frustration when my sister neglected to tell me where my mother was being buried, and when I explained the situation to Robert he stated that he could not tell me where my mother was buried because of the power of attorney law and I would have to go through my sister who neglected to inform me of anything?!I was alone in this. Your staff couldve contacted me if my sister refused to do so, or insisted she inform me when I called you and made you aware of the hostile situation between my sister and me? You couldve done something to make it right. It was clear your staff only catered to my sister because she held the purse and the decisions.Thanks Westminster memorial for adding even more grief to my already broken heart during horrible tragic time. Ill always remember the highlights of your staff refusing to tell me where my mother was buried. I had to go with my girlfriend and drive around your cemetery to find her gravesite. Thanks for adding to the grief of my horribly tragic memory of the way my sister handled things. That fact what will always cross my mind when I think of Westminster Memorial Park Mortuary.PS. Per your suggestion I wrote the email address that you gave me with my phone number and General manager said he would look into it and get back to me but he never did as of today’s date.

Everyone there is outstanding, polite, and very caringYou use to give out a book and a cross. I would love to have one for my husband, please

They provided me with caring and professional service at very stressful time. I was able to give my husband the funeral services he wanted. I was impressed with the quality of the service I was provided.

Staff took very good care of us. Extremely impressed with the services provided within a short turnaround time. We received lots of compliments of how well run everything went.

The staff was very helpful and professional. Annie and Wendy were wonderful and very understanding. They attended to our every need. Annie was extremely helpful and patient. She was with us every step of the way. My mom was very happy with the location of her final home. Thank you Annie.

Everyone at WMP we’re extremely helpful and kind to us. Robert Ruiz and Cindy Carlson treated us with care and understanding. We couldn’t be more satisfied.

Chelsea has been truly wonderful during this process for our family!! She is a blessing!!

I worked closely with Wendy, Ashley, and Michael and their professionalism and caring nature made for a beautiful experience for my moms funeral service. I couldnt of asked for a nicer or more memorable funeral service for my mom.

My Aunt and I were very pleased with the way your Mortuary handled our needs with respect and dignity. My Mother, Aunt and now my Uncle are resting peacefully. Thank you again.Sincerely,Teena MichieCaroline Schenck

Robert and the staff were very professional and considerate of me and my family during such a difficult time for us. We appreciate all they did for us and what they do as a whole.

The staff at Westminster Memorial Park are absolute professionals.When you enter the lobby you are immediately welcomed by a Receptionist with a smile who arranges a meeting place with the Staff Advisors. I cant say enough about meeting with Ms. Annie Nguyen, Final Arrangement Advisor, and Mr. Robert A. Ruiz, Mortuary Arranger. They are bright, helpful and respectful. Without their insight and guidance we would have been lost. We enjoyed working with them very much.The Chapel team of Bryce and Ron were also excellent. They provided insight as to what others had done and the encouragement to do what we would like..The Marine Honor Guard and three shot volley was more than we expected. They were really great.The Westminster Memorial Park Mortuary was the very best we could ever expect under our difficult circumstances. We thank the entire Team and wish you all the best.Lynn James Heacox

Great service Warren Roitman is VERY helpful and caring. Cindy Carlson is also very great and helpful, I appreciate all the help they gave myself & and family in this time of grief.

Westminister Memorial is professional and compassionate. In particular Warren, who helped me through a most difficult time. Mine was a unique situation. Warrens help in this was invaluable to me. Thank you for everything. ☆☆☆☆☆

Thank You for the Very Kind sevice

I had a very good experience. Warran was very curious and extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

We used Dignity Memorial this month for my fathers service. Chelsea Mesa was an excellent representive of the organization. No pressure or upsales just respectful courteous service. I would definitely recommend her and this organization at Westminster Memorial.

I have worked with the staff at Westminster Memorial Park for both of my parents. From the receptionists to the funeral coordinators the staff is warm, compassionate, and professional. Most recently we worked with Larry Lacost for my mom’s arrangements and because of his excellent service we chose WMP to prearrange my husband’s and my own mortuary services. We visited and looked at another local large mortuary/cemetery but found that we preferred the smaller and more personal service that WMP offered. Making funeral arrangements is never “pleasant”, but Larry, Warren, and the staff at WMP made us feel comfortable and cared for. I highly recommend their mortuary services.

Very professional organization. They make it much easier to get thru things at a difficult time.

The McClure would like to thank you all for the love and care younshowedbour Mother and family duringnthis difficult time.I would like to especially thank Elizabeth oit planner and coordinator. She was very caring, kept us on point, coordinating every aspect of the memorial services. We felt very good throughout the entire process. We greatly appreciatr all her efforts.

Chelsea was horrible. She made our experience terrible. Details will be discussed with management but she is not qualified to perform her job. She is heartless. She was disrespectful. Called my dad her more than once. Never appologized. Letters will be written.

This is me papa :..(

I made an appointment with Baltizar and he was exceedingly kind and helpful. He questioned me about what I wanted to purchase in my planning and never once applied any pressure to purchase more than I wanted. I will certainly go to Baltizar if I decide to purchase anything more or with any questions I might have in the future.

Our family very happy with the services. Especially thank you to Victor Quan Vu and Chelsea Mesa.

Chelsea and Annie were great at making the process smooth and helping though the process as well as following up with us.

We buried our father in July and they told us 90 days for the marker. We checked back after 90 days because it still was not on the plot. We were told it would be any day now they were behind. Well it’s now January 24 2019 and no marker. We emailed and she replied saying the order was never placed for the marker and it will be another 30 days!? Unacceptable customer service!

We purchased, paid for, and were promised a burial within 24 hours. Interment did not happen until 12 days after the death. 19 days later, we still do not have a death certificate. Our salesman was most unprofessional, joking and talking to non-family members about the value of the remaining plot, when we visited the day after our family members death. A perfectly horrible experience.

The staff was extremely rude to me and would not answer any questions regarding my fathers remains because they thought he was married and even so I am his daughter, they cremated my father without my permission and took the word of his girl friend. dont work with these people!!!

From the moment we walked in the door, through the entire process, the staff was kind, caring, and respectful of our wishes. We first interviewed Wendy Luyben, Funderal Director, and Warren Roitman, Funeral Arranger. Both were excellent listeners who offered great advice and let us know many of our options. There was no hard sell or pushiness as they answered our questions, provided us with estimates, and explained the next steps.Elizabeth Mendoza, Funeral Arranger, took on our project and did a fabulous job communicating with us, and gave us even more information and options. She wrote letters so loved ones could leave work, organized our fathers military honors, scheduled with the VA cemetery, arranged for a horse and carriage, helped us place items with Dad in his casket and more. She helped make the process of preparing for Dads final deployment to be one of joy through our sorrow.

Great place, well kept, very knowledgeable staff. Virginia is great to work with.

All employees were helpful, caring and thoughtful.

Made the pilgrimage to Mecca to visit Brads memorial. #ruaBadphish2

I came to visit my parents graves, we spent over $100,000 at this park. The small road inside the park is a 2 way road but today there was a service and people were allowed to park on both sides so theres only room for a car to go through. No employees from the Park directs traffic nor making it a 1 direction only so my car almost hit head on with another car. When I saw a lady standing talking to her guy with a tractor, I told her that this is unacceptable and this is an accident waiting to happen. She did not care and also said I can go now like I am working for her. She dismissed me and was rude to me but she forgot that we the customers pay for her salary. She is a racist because I am Vietnamese, and her name is Virginia. This old lady should act her age, the owner of this Park should fired her. This is 2018, RACISM is unacceptable, this Park is very popular with the Vietnamese Community, our people will take the business somewhere else.

My father n grandfather r laid to rest there. The best decision our family made.

Very nicely maintained and easily accessable for everyonr. Very nice pond ares as well

My Father, Grandmother and Grandfather are all placed here. The experience with placing my grandmother to rest here was not a very good one for my uncle and father......It was a horrible experience when placing my father. I was sold a space in the mausoleum and then given the wrong one on the day of the memorial and to add insult to injury, they misspelled my fathers name on the signs to direct guest to his space. His name is Timothy, not terribly complicated, I felt it to be disrespectful. Very sad and disappointing while trying to grieve. These are only 2 of the many careless mistakes that were made.

The place so nice but The supervisor came late, he took more than 30 min until he came. while we were under sun, just waiting Him

Nice place to be your last stop in life.

Bradley Nowell is buried singer if band Sublime R.I.P

Highest level of care and concern.

Great cemetery but today I used the restroom because as a pregnant women I have to use the restroom constantly and an elder white women didn’t even greet me gave me a look and I told her nicely I was going to use the restroom and she said “ if you instist “ and still looked at me in a rude way and as I walked out didn’t say anything and it’s just unfortunate to have such a miserable staff . Hope I don’t ever come across her ever again

Great cemetary. Has convienient garbage cans and nice statues. Mostly by Michealangelo.

I dont about anyone else but this place did what ever it wanted with my sons dead body. we begged the manager Powers not to have services due to the person that made arrangements had no legal right to. She said she didnt care and did anyway. She first said she had to prove that they had power of attorney and then later she found something but notary forgot to sign. Even the hospital said they didnt have anything. But she was gonna lose 18000.00 and I can only assume that money means more to her. Now being investigated. She only had to show us what she had but refused to that also. I am so confused as to why she would hurt us at this time. So beware

Bradley Nowell is buried close to the beach and hazard corner, his grave is lined up with the popeyes across the street, thr tombstone is about 70 yards from beach blvd

Peaceful, thank you for assisting us

Pretty good here i never visited

I buried my Mother here in May of 2007 and the experience was wonderful. I burried my brother here and had the worst experience I have ver had in a Memeorial park.I even had a call from the sales manager who didn;t wnat to hear the truth.The incredible sloppiness of the paperwork and no one knowing what they were doing in a time of crisis was deplorable.I had to go back and back to revamp the paperwork and at the very end was asked AGAIN if the contract was paid. The sales mananger called me and I asked her if she would use the services if she was handled like myself and she said well dont use us then. Whatever has happened to this sales force is beyond me. It was nothing but stressful and ugly.

Not a fun place to go to

Most of my wifes family are buried here...

Quiet and clean

May God shed His mercy on the departed here. The God and that to Him we return

Because its super ..... can bring me peace and tranquility my life and my loved ones
