PART I

ITEM 1.  DESCRIPTION OF BUSINESS

Hosoi Garden Mortuary, Inc. (the "Company") was
incorporated in 1957 under the laws of the State of
Hawaii as the successor to a business founded in 1900.
Professional funeral services are the principal
services rendered by the Company.  The Company is
engaged in the funeral and mortuary business, including
the sale of pre-need funeral services contracts.
During the fiscal years ended May 31, 1997 and 1996,
funeral services accounted for 72.7% and 70.6%,
respectively, of revenues.  The Company owns 50% of
Garden Life Plan, Ltd. ("Garden Life") which sells
pre-need funeral service contracts for which the
Company acts as the sole servicing mortuary.

The Company operates a mortuary business in Honolulu,
Hawaii.  Although established to offer funeral services
to all persons in Hawaii, the Company serves
principally persons of Japanese ancestry who follow a
particular and special order of worship in accordance
with their religious beliefs.  In addition to handling
funeral services for residents of Honolulu, the Company
conducts services for residents of other counties in
Hawaii and prepares remains for shipment to or receives
them from other counties in Hawaii, other states in the
United States and foreign countries.

                    3
<PAGE>

Competition in the funeral business in Hawaii is based
upon (1) the location of a mortuary and (2) the
principal ethnic group that a mortuary serves.  There
are 21 mortuaries in the State of Hawaii.  Their
locations are as follows:

<TABLE>
<CAPTION>
      LOCATION               NUMBER OF MORTUARIES
      <C>                    <C>
      Island of Hawaii         3
      Island of Maui           3
      Island of Oahu          12 (one military)
      Island of Kauai          2
      Island of Molokai        1
</TABLE>

Because of the separation of the Hawaiian islands by
ocean, a mortuary is generally confined to the funeral
demands of a particular island.  A very small
percentage of business constitutes service requiring
the use of funeral parlors on an island other than
where death has occurred.

In most cases, a substantial portion of the business of
a mortuary is from an ethnic group it principally
serves.  A few of the mortuaries serve all ethnic
groups.  In calendar year 1996, 87.32% of the Company's
total services were for families of Japanese ancestry.

The larger mortuaries on the Island of Oahu and the
ethnic groups which they are believed to serve
primarily are as follows:

Thirty-six (36) persons were employed by the Company
for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1997.  Fourteen (14)
persons were employed full-time and twenty-two (22)
persons were employed part-time.

                    5
<PAGE>

ITEM 2.  DESCRIPTION OF PROPERTY

The Company operates its business at 30 North Kukui
Street, Honolulu, Hawaii, 96817, on the northwest
corner of Nuuanu Avenue and Kukui Street in Honolulu
Hawaii.  The business site consists of 92,773 square
feet, of which the Company owns a 78/104th interest.
The Herman S. Hosoi Trust owns a 13.65/104th interest
and the Hosoi-Tamori-Shimonishi Trust owns the
remaining 12.35/104th interest.  The trustees and
beneficiaries of both trusts include directors,
officers and shareholders of the Company. 

The portion owned by the Company is owned in fee
simple.  The Company leases the portion owned by the
Herman S. Hosoi Trust and Hosoi-Tamori-Shimonishi Trust
("Trusts") under a five-year lease that expired on May
31,1994, subject to an option to renew for an
additional five-year period.  The option to renew the
lease was exercised while negotiations for the terms of
a new lease continued.  In July 1997, the terms of a
new lease were approved by the Directors of the Company.
The lease, which expires on May 31, 1999, requires
annual lease payments of $300,000, plus general excise
taxes, in addition to real property taxes on the
portion of the land owned by the Trusts.  For more
information on the lease between the Company and the
Trusts, see Footnote 12 on page F-18 of the Company's
Financial Statements, which are attached hereto and
incorporated by reference.

The main mortuary building, which was built in 1961,
contains a chapel area, which is capable of being used
for one service with a seating capacity of 600 or for
two chapels with a seating capacity of 300 each.
There is an altar and family room at each end of the
building.  The office is located on the west end of the
main mortuary building.  The embalming rooms are on the
second floor.

                    6
<PAGE>

In addition, there is a combined garage, kitchen and
dining room annex.  Parking facilities for 147 cars
have access to Nuuanu Avenue, Kukui Street and
Maunakea Street, and are one-half block away from
Vineyard Boulevard, which is one of the main
thoroughfares in Honolulu.  The areas not used for
buildings or parking stalls have been appropriately
landscaped to qualify for partial real property tax
exemption.

No substantial addition or changes in the real
property or improvements of the Company were made
during the fiscal year ended May 31, 1997.

ITEM 5.  MARKET FOR COMMON STOCK AND RELATED
         SHAREHOLDERS MATTERS

The common shares of the Company are neither traded nor
listed on an exchange and has no established public
trading market.  One stockbroker in Honolulu, Hawaii, 
quotes the common stock, but the Company does not know
the prices at which the trades are made.  During the
fiscal year ended May 31, 1997, the Company redeemed
42,170 shares as follows:

<TABLE>

There were 1,683 record holders of common stock as of
May 31, 1997.

A cash dividend has been declared and paid once a year
since 1969.  The dividend for the year ended May 31,
1996, which was declared on November 15, 1996, was
$.045 per share, and was paid to shareholders in
January 1997.

</TABLE>

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

TOTAL REVENUES

The Company's revenues increased by $130,371 in 1997
over 1996.  The increase of 4.8% is attributable to
increases in revenues from facilities charges and from
charges for funeral services.  Revenues from facilities
charges increased by $15,500 and revenues from services
increased by $110,400 in 1997 over 1996, respectively.

Overall, the Company expects revenue growth to continue
in fiscal 1998 due to an increase in prices for funeral
services, partially offset by an expected shift to
lower priced funeral services.

The Company's operating expenses are increasing as the
Company continues to

                    10
<PAGE>

upgrade its professional staff and
continues to explore either the establishment of a
pre-need authority or the purchase of the interest of
its 50% shareholder in Garden Life Plan, Ltd., and
operating results for fiscal 1998 will be adversely
affected if revenues do not increase correspondingly.

The Company's operating results may also be affected by
Hawaii's generally unfavorable economic conditions
which may be the cause of the shift to lower priced
funeral services.


COST OF SALES AND SERVICES

Cost of sales and services remained relatively stable
at 73.2% in 1997 compared to 73.9% in 1996.  Cost of
sales for 1996 has been restated from the amount
previously reported of 70.9 % to 73.9% as a result of
the retroactive adjustment of rental expense from
$275,868, the amount previously reported, to $356,430.
The increase in rental expense as a percent of
revenues, was offset by decreases in the cost of
merchandise.  


GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit as a percentage of total revenues
remained relatively stable at 26.8% and 26.1% in 1997
and 1996 respectively.  Gross profit for 1996 has
been restated from the amount previously reported
from 29.1% to 26.1% to reflect the adjustment of
rental expense as discussed in Cost of Sales and
Services above.


SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased
from $643,321 in 1996 to $723,642 in 1997 and as a
percentage of revenues these expenses were 25.2% in
1997 and 23.4% in 1996.  The increase in 1997 is
attributable to increases in professional services and
salaries

                    11
<PAGE>

and wages.

The increase in professional services is attributable
to an increase in legal and accounting fees as a
result of legal and accounting issues related to the
evaluation of the current situation with Garden Life
Plan, Ltd. and the study for the establishment of a
pre-need authority in the future.

The increase in salaries and wages is a result of the
addition of an additional secretary in the
administrative offices.


EARNINGS OF GARDEN LIFE PLAN, LTD.

Revenues from the trust funds of the Company's
subsidiary, Garden Life Plan, Ltd. (GLP), whose
earnings are accounted for on the equity method of
accounting are included in the amount reflected as
Equity in earnings of Garden Life Plan, Ltd. of
$1,093,897 and $235,324 for 1997 and 1996 respectively.
The increase in 1997 over 1996 is attributable to a
change in the method in GLP Trust's method of
accounting for its investment.  Effective June 1, 1996,
the Trust began recording its investment at market
value.  Previously, the Trust recorded its investments
at cost.

Earnings of the Trust fund of GLP are not directly
affected by decisions of the management of the Company.
Investment decisions are generally made by the money
manager of GLP's Trust funds.  Fluctuations in GLP's
Trust fund income, which amounted to $1,641,352 and
$705,222 for the years ended May 31, 1997 and 1996
respectively are the result of fluctuations in interest
rates, capital gains and the mix of investment of the
Trust.

Information relating to Trust investments, obligations
and earnings are more fully described in Footnote 2 of
GLP's financial statements, which are attached hereto
and

                    12
<PAGE>

incorporated by reference.

Equity in the earnings of GLP accounted for 87.8% and
58.5% of the Company's net income in 1997 and 1996,
respectively.


INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective income tax rate was 36.5% of
pre-tax income in 1997 and 41.2% in 1996.  Note (9) to
the Company's financial statements presents a
reconciliation of the Company's effective and statutory
income tax rates.


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Total working capital decreased by $198,879 from
$1,727,133 in 1996 to $1,528,254 in 1997.  The decrease
is attributable to an increase in current liabilities,
particularly in trade accounts payable and accrued
liabilities relative to the increase in current assets.
Working capital ratio was 2.9:1 at May 31, 1997 and
3.9:1 at May 31, 1996.

Working capital and the working capital ratio at May
31, 1996 has been restated from the amounts previously
reported of $1,850,300 and 5.6:1 respectively, because
of the restatement of the 1996 financial statements for
the retroactive accrual of rent expense, pursuant to
the renegotiation of the lease as discussed in
Item 2 - Description of Property.

Securities Held to Maturity increased from $69,834 in
1996 to $1,101,423 in 1997 principally as a result of
the investment of dividends received from Garden Life
Plan, Ltd. in the Company's investment monitor account
at a bank.

At the end of 1997, the Company did not have any
long-term debt.  The Company expects that cash flows
from operations, its cash reserves and  investments
will be adequate to meet the Company's cash
requirements in the foreseeable future.

                    13
<PAGE>

Dividends declared for the fiscal years ended 1996 and
1995, respectively, were $.045 per share which amounted
to $81,572 and $82,419.

Cash out flows for the acquisition of the Company's
shares were $169,629 in 1997 and $76,481 in 1996.
The Company expects that future acquisitions will be in
the range of $50,000 to $70,000 per year.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANTS

To the Stockholders and Board of Directors
     HOSOI GARDEN MORTUARY, INC.

We have audited the balance sheets of

HOSOI GARDEN MORTUARY, INC.

as of May 31, 1997  and 1996, and the related
statements of income, retained earnings and cash flows
for the years then ended.  The financial statements are
the responsibility of the Company's management.  Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.  We did not
audit the financial statements of Garden Life Plan,
Ltd., (50% owned subsidiary accounted for by the equity
method) for its years then ended May 31, 1997 and 1996,
which accounts for 23.3% and 24.5% of total assets and
87.8% and 58.5% of net income in 1997 and 1996
respectively.  Those statements were audited by other
auditors whose reports have been furnished to us, and
our opinion, insofar as it relates to the amounts
included in the Company's equity in the underlying net
assets and its equity in the earnings of the subsidiary
is based solely on the report of the other auditors.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards.  Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our
audits and the reports of other auditors provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

                    F-1
<PAGE>

In our opinion, based upon our audits and the reports
of other auditors, the financial statements referred
to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of HOSOI GARDEN MORTUARY, INC. as of
May 31, 1997 and 1996, and the results of its
operations and its cash flows for the years then ended
in conformity with generally accepted accounting
principles.

Years Ended May 31, 1997 and 1996

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
    (CONTINUED)

Investment in Garden Life Plan, Ltd. - The Company
accounts for its investment in Garden Life Plan, Ltd.
(50% owned Company) by the equity method.  The equity
in earnings of Garden Life Plan, Ltd. reflected on the
statements of income includes the pro rata share of the
earnings of Garden Life Plan, Ltd., net of income
taxes applicable to such earnings, for its years ended
May 31, 1997 and 1996.

Inventories - Inventories of caskets and urns are
stated at the lower of cost or market.  Cost is
determined substantially by the first-in, first-out
method and market is based on replacement cost or
realizable value.

Property and equipment - Land, buildings and equipment
are carried at cost.  Depreciation is computed using
the declining-balance and straight-line methods.
Maintenance and repairs are charged to income as
incurred.  Major renewals and betterments are
capitalized.  Upon sale or other disposition of assets,
the cost and related accumulated depreciation are
removed from the accounts, the proceeds applied
thereto, and any resulting gain or loss is reflected
in income.

Compensated absences - Full-time  employees of the
Company are entitled to paid vacations and  sick days.
Unused vacation and sick leave are reflected in accrued
liabilities.

Earnings per common share - Earnings per common share
has been computed by dividing net income by the
weighted average number of common shares outstanding.

Revenue and cost recognition - Revenues from at-need
funeral services and pre-need funeral plan services are
recognized upon the completion of the final funeral
ceremony.  Revenues from at-need funeral services
include professional service revenues which are
included in FUNERAL SERVICES and sales of caskets, urns
and other items which are included in SALE OF URNS AND
OTHER ITEMS.  Revenues from pre-need services, which
accounted for approximately 25.5% and 22.6% of funeral
service revenues in 1997 and 1996, respectively, are
accounted for in FUNERAL SERVICES since these plans are
sold inclusive of the merchandise selected.

(1) SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
    (CONTINUED)

Cost of sales and services includes all direct cost,
including merchandise, labor and other related cost
and indirect cost such as insurance, depreciation,
supplies and indirect labor costs, related to the
performance and completion of at-need and pre-need
funeral services.

Advertising - The Company follows the policy of
charging the costs of advertising to operations as
incurred.

Income taxes - Income tax expense is based on reported
earnings before income taxes.  Deferred income taxes
reflect the impact of temporary differences between
assets and liabilities recognized for financial
reporting purposes and such amounts recognized for
tax purposes.  In accordance with Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) 109, ACCOUNTING
FOR INCOME TAXES, these deferred taxes are measured by
applying currently enacted tax laws.

Use of estimates - The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of
contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the
financial statements, and the reported amounts of
revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.

All payments received from the sale of pre-need funeral
plans up to an amount equal to 30% of the total price
plus any sales tax or other charges are retained by GLP
as its compensation.  The balance is deposited with
Hawaiian Trust Company, Limited (Trust) to be held in
trust.  GLP is entitled to all earnings from funds held
in trust which earnings amounted to $1,641,352 and
$705,222 for the years ended May 31, 1997 and 1996,

(5) Deferred income taxes

Deferred taxes are recognized for differences between
the basis of assets and liabilities for financial
statement and income tax purposes.  The deferred
assets and liabilities represent the future tax
consequences of those differences, which will be either
taxable or deductible when the assets and liabilities
are recovered or settled.  The deferred tax liability
results from the recognition of unrealized gains or
losses on securities for financial statements and
the recognition of gains or losses when securities are
sold for income tax purposes, the inclusion of the
deferred earnings on an annuity for financial
statements and the recognition of the earnings when
received for tax purposes

in subsidiary as explained under Garden Life Plan, Ltd.
above.  Under the equity method the Company's share of
earnings of the subsidiary is reported for tax purposes
only when distributions of earnings are received as
dividend.

The deferred tax asset results from the use of the
reserve method in accounting for uncollectible accounts
receivable in the financial statements and the use of
the direct write off method for income tax purpose, the
accrual of the retroactive rent for financial
statements purposes and the recognition of the rent
expense when paid for income tax purposes and the
accrual of vacation and sick leave when earned for the
financial statements and the recognition for income tax
purposes when paid.

(7) Funeral service deposits
   
Included in accounts payable is $32,564 of deposits
made by eleven individuals that the Company has been
collecting from since 1969 for future services or
purchase of merchandise.  The payable of $32,564,
including interest of $24,539 accrued to May 31, 1997,
approximates fair value.

In an agreement with the Professional and Vocational
Licensing Division of the State of Hawaii, Department
of Commerce and Consumer Affairs (DCCA), the Company
consented to a plan to either convert these funeral
service deposits to a Garden Life Plan, Ltd.'s (GLP)
pre-need funeral plan identical to the services and/or
merchandise that the depositor originally contracted
for or refund the deposit plus accrued interest.  The
agreement with the DCCA provides that the Company will
provide the funds for any difference between the cost
of a comparable GLP pre-need plan and the amount
deposited with the Company.

As of May 31, 1997, twenty-seven plans have been
converted to GLP pre-need plans.  The difference
between the cost of plans converted and the amount of
the available deposit is reflected as a charge to
operations.  Eleven plans remain to be converted.  No
provision has been made for the cost of conversion of
the remaining eleven plans because of the uncertainty
of whether the holders of the deposits will elect to
convert to a GLP pre-need plan or elect to receive a
refund.

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Garden Life Plan, Ltd.:

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of
Garden Life Plan, Ltd. as of May 31, 1997 and 1996, and
the related statements of income and retained earnings
and of cash flows for the years then ended.  These
financial statements are the responsibility of the
Company's management.  Our responsibility is to express
an opinion on these financial statements based on our
audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards.  Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable
assurance about whether the financial statements are
free of material misstatement.  An audit includes
examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the
amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
An audit also includes assessing the accounting
principles used and significant estimates made by
management, as well as evaluating the overall,
financial statement presentation.  We believe that our
audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

In our opinion, such financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the financial
position of Garden Life Plan, Ltd. at May 31, 1997 and
1996, and the results of its operations and its cash
flows for the years then ended in conformity with
generally accepted accounting principles.  As described
in Note 2 to the financial statements, in fiscal 1997,
the Company changed its method of accounting for trust
fund income.

Our audits were conducted for the purpose of forming an
opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.  The supplemental schedules listed in the table
of contents are presented for the purpose of additional
analysis and are not a required part of the basic
financial statements.  These schedules are the
responsibility of the Company's management.  Such
schedules have been subjected to the auditing
procedures applied in our audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in
all material respects when considered in relation to
the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

GARDEN LIFE PLAN, LTD.
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED MAY 31, 1997 AND 1996

1. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION - Garden Life Plan, Ltd. (the "Company")
is owned by Hawaiian Memorial Park Cemetery ("HMPC")
and Hosoi Garden Mortuary, Inc. ("Hosoi").  Each
company owns 50% of Garden Life Plan, Ltd.
   
BUSINESS - The Company is a sales organization that
sells pre-need mortuary services.  Approximately 25% of
each sales contract is paid in cash and the remainder
is paid under an installment contract over varying
terms but usually 60 months.  The first 30% of each
contract is earned and recorded as revenue by the
Company.  This amount is used to cover the Company's
initial "acquisition costs" (i.e., sales commissions
and administrative costs) and is not refundable to
customers under the terms of the contract.  The
remaining 70% is collected by the Company and paid to
Garden Life Funeral Plan Trust (Trust), a trust
administered by Hawaiian Trust Company, Limited.
   
If a contract owner dies before the contract is fully
paid, his or her estate must pay the balance of the
contract.
   
When a contract owner dies, Hosoi provides the
mortuary services and the Trust pays Hosoi for the
contract services at prices stipulated in the
original contract (70% of the contract price).  Such
payments are made from Trust principal.  Hosoi absorbs
any difference between the actual costs to perform the
contracted services and the amounts received from the
Trust under the terms of the contract.  Trust earnings
are payable to the Company and are recorded as income
as earned.  Many of the Trust investments are tax
exempt and, accordingly, certain earnings recorded by
the Company are tax exempt.
   
REVENUE RECOGNITION - Revenue from pre-need funeral
plan sales is recognized at the date of the sale of
the contract.

CERTIFICATE OF DEPOSIT - RESTRICTED - The certificate
of deposit is held by the State of Hawaii as collateral
for insurance purposes, as an alternative to the
Company obtaining a surety bond.

EQUIPMENT - Equipment consists primarily of computer
equipment and software.  Depreciation is calculated
on the straight-line method over the estimated useful
lives of the assets.

INCOME TAXES - Income tax expense includes federal
and Hawaii income taxes.  Deferred income taxes are
provided for significant temporary differences, if
any, between the financial statement and income tax
bases for assets and liabilities.

ALLOCATION OF EXPENSES - HMPC charges the Company a
management fee to cover allocated facilities and
personnel costs.

                    -5-
<PAGE>

USE OF ESTIMATES - The preparation of financial
statements in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles requires management to make
estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure
of contingent assets and liabilities at the date
of the financial statements, and the reported amounts
of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.


2. THE TRUST

As the Company collects on its pre-need funeral plans
sales, it is obligated to pay amounts collected in
excess of the first 30% of the original contract price
to the Trust.  To ensure that these funds will be
available when the funeral services are performed by
Hosoi, the market value of the Trust assets must equal
or exceed the prospective obligation of the Trust.  The
market value of the Trust assets exceeded this
contractual obligation by approximately $3,450,000 and
$3,900,000 at May 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.

Information relating to Trust investments, obligations
and earnings at May 31, 1997 and 1996 follows:

Total - Trust Net Assets     $11,808,871 $14,994,988  $12,252,596 $14,791,767
</TABLE>

Effective June 1, 1996, the Trust began recording its
investments at market value.  Previously, the Trust
recorded its investments at cost.  The cumulative
effect of this change as of June 1, 1996 was an
increase in the trust fund income receivable of
$1,574,286 (net of deferred taxes of $964,885) and is
shown as a "cumulative effect of change in accounting
principle" in the fiscal 1997 statement of income and
retained earnings.

The contractual obligation of the Trust to fund
pre-need funeral plans approximated $11,500,000 and
$10,900,000 at May 31, 1997 and 1996, respectively.
Trust income to be distributed to the Company amounted
to $3,453,552 at May 31, 1997.
   
The weighted average rate of earnings (including
unrealized gains and losses) on Trust assets
approximated 11% and 10% for the years ended May 31,
1997 and 1996, respectively.
   
The timing of distribution of the Company's trust
income receivable is generally dependent upon the
market value of the Trust assets in relation to
obligations.
   
The State of Hawaii requires that an annual actuarial
study be performed on the Trust to determine if Trust
principal along with anticipated future earnings are
sufficient to meet the future liability to plan
purchasers.  Results of the study performed as of June
30, 1996 indicate that the value of the fund exceeds
the present value of future claims.  The actuarial
study as of May 31, 1997 is not yet available.
However, it is management's opinion that the value of
the fund at May 31, 1997 is sufficient to meet the
future liability to plan purchasers.

                    -6-

3. RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

Hosoi is the sole servicing mortuary.  Payments made
for services rendered on contracts are made directly
to Hosoi by the Trust and are not reflected in these
financial statements.
   
The management fee paid to HMPC was $174,000 for the
years ended May 31, 1997 and 1996.


4. INCOME TAXES

A reconciliation between the income tax provision
and the amount computed using the statutory federal
rate of 34% follows:

</TABLE>

The temporary differences which gave rise to
significant portions of deferred taxes at May 31,
1997 and 1996 were adjustments for a change in
accounting method, reserve for cancellations,
timing differences between book and tax recognition
of trust income, and funeral service coupons.

The deferred tax assets and liabilities at May 31,
1997 and 1996 were as follows:

5.  COMPENSATION OF CHARTER MEMBERS

In October 1995, the Company's Board of Directors moved to
compensate its charter members, for relinquishing their
status as charter members with a final distribution
consisting of an option to receive either $250 in cash or a
$500 coupon for future funeral services.  Charter members
are the original customers of the Company, who had received
payments from the Company in prior years at the discretion
of the Board of Directors.  The option expired February 29,
1996, at which time all charter members who had not
exercised the $250 cash option were mailed the $500 coupon
for future funeral services.  The Company will pay the
servicing mortuary (Hosoi) for such services upon the death
of the charter member and the receipt of the issued coupon.
In fiscal 1996, the Company accrued in administrative
expenses the $210,500 estimated cost of the option,
including cash payments of $90,500 and $120,000 representing
the estimated net present value of the future payments on
coupons outstanding.  At May 31, 1997, the net present value
of future payments on coupons outstanding approximated
$114,750.

GARDEN LIFE FUNERAL PLAN TRUST

STATEMENTS OF ASSETS AND TRUST EQUITY (MODIFIED CASH
BASIS) AS OF MAY 31, 1997 AND 1996, SUPPLEMENTAL
SCHEDULE (MODIFIED CASH BASIS) FOR THE YEAR ENDED
MAY 31, 1997 AND INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

<PAGE>

INDEPENDENT AUDITORS' REPORT

Garden Life Funeral Plan Trust:

We have audited the accompanying statements of assets
and trust equity (modified cash basis) of
Garden Life Funeral Plan Trust as of May 31, 1997 and
1996.  These financial statements are the
responsibility of the Trust's management. Our
responsibility is to express an opinion on these
financial statements based on our audits.

We conducted our audits in accordance with generally
accepted auditing standards.  Those standards require
that we plan and perform the audit to obtain
reasonable assurance about whether the financial
statements are free of material misstatement.  An
audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence
supporting the amounts and disclosures in the
financial statements.  An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and
significant estimates made by management, as well as
evaluating the overall financial statement
presentation.  We believe that our audits provide a
reasonable basis for our opinion.

As described in Note 1, these financial statements were
prepared on a modified cash basis of accounting, which
is a comprehensive basis of accounting other than
generally accepted accounting principles.

In our opinion, such financial statements present
fairly, in all material respects, the assets and
trust equity of Garden Life Funeral Plan Trust as
of May 31, 1997 and 1996, on the basis of accounting
described in Note 1.

Our audits were made for the purpose of forming an
opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.  The supplemental schedule of trust fund
deposits and withdrawals (modified cash basis) for
the year ended May 31, 1997 is presented for the
purpose of additional analysis and is not a required
part of the basic financial statements.  The schedule
is the responsibility of the Trust's management.  Such
supplemental schedule has been subjected to the
auditing procedures applied in our audit of the basic
financial statements and, in our opinion, is fairly
stated in all material respects when considered in
relation to the basic financial statements taken as a
whole.

GARDEN LIFE FUNERAL PLAN TRUST

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
MAY 31, 1997 AND 1996

1. SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Garden Life Funeral Plan Trust (the "Trust") was
established by Garden Life Plan, Limited, with
Hawaiian Trust Company, Limited as trustee, to comply
with Chapter 441 of the Hawaii Revised Statutes which
requires every pre-need funeral licensee (Garden Life
Plan, Limited, the "Licensee") to set up and maintain
one or more trusts to hold, administer, invest, and
distribute pre-need funeral service funds.  Such funds
are held in trust for the contract owner or "trustor"
to pay for his or her contracted funeral services
upon death.

BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - The statement of assets and
trust equity is prepared on the modified cash basis,
except that investment funds are stated at market value,
which have been determined by Hawaiian Trust Company,
Ltd. based on the closing market prices of the underlying
portfolio at year end.  Certain revenue and the
related assets are recognized when received rather
than when earned, and certain expenses are recognized
when paid rather than when the obligation is
incurred.  Accordingly, the accompanying financial
statements are not intended to present financial
position in conformity with generally accepted
accounting principles.

CHANGE IN ACCOUNTING METHOD - In fiscal 1997, the basis
of accounting for investments was retroactively changed
to fair market value from cost.  The effect of the change
was to increase the carrying value of net assets by
$2,539,171 at May 31, 1996.

OPERATION OF TRUST - The Licensee, after recovery of
30% of the pre-need funeral service contract price,
is required to deposit all subsequent contract price
receipts in the Trust.  The income from investments
of the Trust is to be distributed to the Licensee.
The principal amount deposited should not be
diminished or withdrawn except in payment of the
funeral services contracted for or unless reclaimed
by the trustor if the contract is canceled.


2. CASH

Cash represents cash deposited in the trustee's cash
management funds.


3. INCOME TAXES
Investment income, net of Trust expenses, is to be
distributed to the Licensee.  Accordingly, income
taxes are an obligation of the Licensee and are not
reflected in the accompanying financial statements.
