My meeting with preplanning advisor Roel B. to review my funeral plans was informative and very helpful. He also assisted me in the repair of a relative’s headstone that was defaced. Two thumbs up!

I had the chance to help film footage here, and the place is absolutely stunning. The grounds are peaceful, beautifully kept, and surrounded by incredible mountain views. It has a calm, respectful feeling throughout, and it is definitely a beautiful place for a final rest.

“A peaceful escape tucked beneath the breathtaking Koʻolau Mountains. 🌿⛰️ The Byodo-In Temple at Hawaii’s Valley of the Temples felt almost unreal—surrounded by lush greenery, still waters, and incredible beauty everywhere you looked. A beautiful reminder to slow down, take it all in, and appreciate the world around us. ❤️ 📍 Valley of the Temples, Oʻahu, Hawaii”

“When my 90 year old Mother unexpectedly passed away peacefully at home in her sleep, the staff at Valley of the Temples gave my family peace of mind. Bree with help from Cherise, were very kind and capable in making arrangements. Our viewing at the beautiful chapel was inspiring. Paul, the attendant, was wonderful. I will treasure my farewell memories. My heartfelt thanks to all.”

“This past Friday we had our memorial service for my grandmother. I helped my aunty with situating everything for the service and working with the staff to make this possible. Cheyne, Jason, John and especially the people who were there on the day of the service (i unfortunately didn’t get their names) to help us run the service were all absolutely amazing and made the process so easy! We needed to make a lot of edits for the programs and tribute video, but Jason and John were really accommodating and helpful and making sure everything was perfect without any complaints. Cheyne answered all of our questions promptly and thoroughly. She was even able to add on last minute things for us to ensure we had enough for all the guests. My Aunty and I couldn’t have been more grateful for all the wonderful staff that made the memorial service for my Grandmother possible. They made the process so easy and smooth, which is exactly what we needed in our time of grief. The service came out so beautiful and memorable. Thank you Cheyne and everyone else who made this day possible. We’re so incredibly grateful for your support and services!”

“Mahalo to Charise, Family Service Advisor at Valley of the Temples Memorial Park in Kāne’ohe, for her excellent customer service. From the moment we met her, Charise was warm, compassionate, and genuinely helpful. She took the time to listen to our concerns, answered our questions with patience, and made sure everything was resolved quickly and professionally. Her kindness, positive attitude, and willingness to help turned what had been a frustrating experience into a positive one. We especially appreciated that she was able to meet us at the Diamond Head office, which was much more convenient since we live in Kaimuki. Mahalo Charise, for going above and beyond. Your professionalism, compassion, and dedication to helping us truly made a difference. Valley of the Temples is fortunate to have you on their team!”
