Original review:
Very friendly staff, they went out of their way to accommodate our request to do the burial asap. Also with the preparations of the body, they were extremely helpful to allow us to do it as per our traditions.
With Stan, the service our family received was nothing but utmost professionalism throughout the entire process and even extended months post mortem. He made the situation more easy for the whole family to bear.
Mahalo Nui Loa, Stan. You are very much appreciated for the highest possible degree of care and service you have rendered to our bereaved Ohana.
The Estorpe Family
As my family and I made plans honor my father’s wishes to have them buried in Hawaii because it was their favorite place to visit. As it was going to be a Military burial Dodo’s was there to make all the arrangements for us. As all 35 children, grandchildren and great grandchildren were coming from the state of Illinois area, it was all their hands to organize for us. The whole family was so pleased with how the ceremony went which helped put them at ease. As we never met them in person they still after it all they called me to make sure everything went smoothly. I thank them for all they did for me and my family.
