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, 1998 and 1997,
funeral services accounted for 72.1% and 72.7%,
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.

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.  Historically, a substantial portion 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:

<PAGE>

On July 7, 1998, the Company entered into an agreement
with Woolsey Funeral & Cemetery Services, Inc. to form
Woolsey-Hosoi Mortuary Services, LLC, a limited
liability company under the laws of the State of Hawaii.
It is expected that the LLC will conduct funeral
services to persons other than those of Japanese
ancestry.  Funeral services arranged by the LLC will
generally be conducted at churches and other locations
other than on the Company's premises.

Thirty-five (35) persons were employed by the Company
for the fiscal year ended May 31, 1997.  Thirteen (13)
persons were employed full-time and twenty-two (22)
persons were employed part-time.


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 August 1997, the terms of a
new lease retroactive to June 1, 1994 were approved by
the Directors of the Company.  The lease, which expires
on May 31, 1999, provides for an annual lease rent of
$312,498, including general excise taxes.  In addition,
the Company is responsible for the payment of real
property taxes on the portion of the land owned by the
Trusts.  Total rental expense was $356,469 and $356,432
in 1998 and 1997, respectively.  For more information
on the lease between the Company and the Trusts, see
Footnote 12 on pages F-18 and F-19 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.

In addition, there is a combined garage, kitchen and
dining room annex.  Parking

                         -5-

<PAGE>

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, 1998, the Company redeemed
32,447 shares as follows:

<TABLE>

</TABLE>

There were 1,660 record holders of common stock as of
May 31, 1998.

A cash dividend has been declared and paid once a year
since 1969.  The dividend for the year ended May 31,
1997, which was declared on November 14, 1997, was
$.10 per share, and was paid to shareholders in
January 1998.

<PAGE>

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS


TOTAL REVENUES

The Company's revenues decreased by $205,749 in 1998
over 1997.  The decrease of 7.2% is attributable to the
decrease in number of services performed from 1,170 in
1997 to 1,050 in 1998, which is a decrease of 10.3%.

The Company expects revenues to remain at the 1998
level, despite an increase in prices for funeral
services, because it is expected that the selection of
lower priced funeral services will continue because of
the poor economic conditions in Hawaii.

The affiliation with Woolsey Funeral & Cemetery
Services, Inc., described in ITEM 1. DESCRIPTION OF
BUSINESS, is a revenue source from a segment of the
community not currently served by the Company.
Initially, the Woolsey-Hosoi Mortuary Services, LLC is
not expected to have a major impact on the Company's
revenues.

The Company's operating expenses are increasing as the
Company continues to upgrade its professional staff
and continues to explore either the establishment of a
pre-need authority,  the purchase of the interest of its
50% shareholder in Garden Life Plan, Ltd. or extending
the service agreement with Garden Life Plan, Ltd. beyond
the expiration in 2001.   Operating results for fiscal
1999 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 increased to 78.8% of
revenues in 1998 compared to 73.2% in 1997.  The 5.6%
increase in cost of sales is attributable to an increase
of 2.9% in the cost of labor and increases of less than
1% each in rent, insurance and other expenses.


GROSS PROFIT

Gross profit as a percentage of total revenues
decreased to 21.2% in 1998 from 26.8% in 1997.   The
decrease is due to the decrease in number of services
performed relative to the increase in the cost of labor
and to fixed costs such as rent and insurance expense.

                         -8-

<PAGE>

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased
to $710,923 in 1998 from $723,642 in 1997.  Because of
a decrease in revenues these expenses increased to 26.7%
of revenues in 1998 from 25.2% in 1997.  As a percent of
revenues, there were no expense category which increased
more than 1% in 1998 over 1997.

It is expected that selling, general and administrative
expenses in 1999 will remain at the 1998 level.


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 $759,190 and
$1,093,897 for 1998 and 1997 respectively.  In 1997,
GLP's earnings included a one time credit for a change
in its accounting for investments in securities 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, 1998 and 1997
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 incorporated by reference.

Equity in the earnings of GLP accounted for 89.1% and
87.8% of the Company's net income in 1998 and 1997,
respectively.


INCOME TAXES

The Company's effective income tax rate was 36.5% of
pre-tax income in 1997 and 29.5% in 1998.  Note (9) to
the Company's financial statements presents a
reconciliation of the Company's effective and
statutory income tax rates.

<PAGE>


LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Total working capital increased by $895,447 from
$1,528,254 in 1997 to $2,389,586 in 1998.  The
increase is attributable to an increase in current
assets, particularly in dividend receivable of
$750,000 and a decrease in current liabilities.
Working capital ratio was 6.9:1 at May 31, 1998 and
2.9:1 at May 31, 1997.

SECURITIES AVAILABLE FOR SALE decreased from
$906,020 in 1997 to $773,464 in 1998 as a result of
the liquidation of securities to pay the retroactive
rent and funds for working capital.

SECURITIES HELD TO MATURITY decreased from $1,101,423
in 1997 to $842,656 in 1998 principally as a result
of the liquidation of Treasury bills for the reasons
stated above.

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.

Dividends declared for the fiscal years ended 1998
and 1997, respectively, were $.10 and $.045 per share
which amounted to $175,569 and $81,572.


Cash out flows for the acquisition of the Company's
shares were $130,289 in 1998 and $169,629 in 1997.
The Company expects that future acquisitions will be
in the range of $100,000 to $150,000 per year.


YEAR 2000 ISSUE

The Company is working to resolve the potential impact
of the year 2000 on the ability of the Company's
computerized information system to accurately process
information that may be date-sensitive.  The Company
utilizes an OFF-THE-SHELF accounting program, which it
expects to be year 2000 compliant before the end of
1999.  The Company has not completed its overall
assessment, but believes that the cost of addressing
this issue will not have a material adverse impact on
the Company financial position.

PART III


ITEM 9.  DIRECTORS, EXECUTIVE OFFICERS, PROMOTERS AND
         CONTROL PERSONS: COMPLIANCE WITH SECTION 16(a)
         OF THE EXCHANGE ACT

The Company has a total of nine (9) directors
constituting the entire Board of Directors, divided
into three (3) classes of three (3) directors each.
The Company's Articles of Association provide for each
class of directors to be elected for three-year terms
on a staggered basis. 

Directors hold office for the duration of their terms

REPORT OF CERTIFIED PUBLIC ACCOUNTANT


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

We have audited the accompanying balance sheets of

HOSOI GARDEN MORTUARY, INC.

as of May 31, 1998  and 1997, and the related statements
of income, retained earnings and 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 did not
audit the financial statements of Garden Life Plan,
Ltd., (a 50% owned subsidiary accounted for by the
equity method of accounting) for its years ended May 31,
1998 and 1997, which accounts 23.3% of total assets and
89.1% and 87.8% of net income in 1998 and 1997,
respectively.  Those financial 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 report 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, 1998 and 1997, 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, 1998 and 1997


(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Line of business - The Company is engaged in one line of
business that consists principally of providing mortuary
services in the State of Hawaii on the island of Oahu.

The significant accounting policies followed by the
Company are summarized below.

Fair value of financial instruments - The carrying
amount of cash and cash equivalents approximates fair
value due to the short-term maturities of these
instruments.  The fair value of current and non-current
marketable securities and long-term debt were estimated
based on quotes obtained from brokers for those or
similar instruments.  The fair value for long-term
investments were estimated based on quoted market price
at year end.

Cash and cash equivalents - For purpose of the statement
of cash flows, cash equivalents includes certificates of
deposit, money market accounts and highly liquid debt
instruments with maturities of three months or less at
the date of acquisition.

Investment securities - Management determines the
appropriate classification of securities at the time of
purchase.  Those investments are classified in three
categories and accounted for as follows:

   .   Debt securities that the company intends to hold
       to maturity are classified as SECURITIES HELD TO
       MATURITY and reported at cost.

   .   Debt and equity securities that are purchased and
       held for the purpose of selling in the near term
       are classified as TRADING SECURITIES and reported
       at fair value, with unrealized gains and losses
       included in income.

   .   Debt and equity securities not classified as
       SECURITIES HELD TO MATURITY or TRADING SECURITIES
       are classified as securities available for sale
       and reported at fair value, with unrealized gains
       and losses reported as a separate component of
       stockholders' equity.  Securities available for
       sale will be used as part of the Company's asset
       management strategy and may be sold in response
       to changes in interest rates or the need for
       capital.

(1)  SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     (CONTINUED)

Investment in Garden Life Plan, Ltd. - The Company
accounts for its investment in Garden Life Plan, Ltd.
(a 50% owned Company) by the equity method of
accounting.  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, 1998 and 1997.

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 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 27.7% and 25.5% of funeral service
revenues in 1998 and 1997, 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, the 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)  Garden Life Plan, Ltd.

the Company's 50% share in the underlying equity in the
net assets, accounted for under the equity method of
accounting for investments in common stock, of Garden
Life Plan, Ltd., a Hawaii corporation engaged in the
sales of pre-need funeral plans which are serviced

All payments received from the sale of pre-need

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
$2,666,047 and $1,641,352 for the years ended May 31,
1998 and 1997, respectively.  The assets of the Trust
are not included in the financial statements of the
Company nor GLP.

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
GLP's trust fund income receivable of $1,574,286 (net
of deferred taxes of $964,885) and is reflected in GLP's

(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 deferred earnings on an annuity for
financial statements and the recognition of the earnings
when received for tax purposes

and the equity method of  accounting for the investment
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
dividends.

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

(7)  FUNERAL SERVICE DEPOSITS
     
Included in accounts payable is $33,066 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 $33,066,
including interest of $25,041 accrued to May 31, 1998,
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, 1998, 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.

GARDEN LIFE PLAN, LTD.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
YEARS ENDED MAY 31, 1998 AND 1997


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 Pacific Century
    Trust.

    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, the Trust pays the
    mortuary service provider (primarily Hosoi) for
    the contracted services at prices stipulated in
    the original contract (70% of the contract price).
    Such payments are made from Trust principal.  The
    service provider 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 when earned by
    the Trust.

    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
    between the financial statement and income tax bases
    of 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 plan
    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,
    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 $4,000,000
    and $3,450,000 at May 31, 1998 and 1997,
    respectively.

</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 $12,700,000 and
    $11,500,000 at May 31, 1998 and 1997, respectively.
    Trust income to be distributed to the Company

                    -6-
<PAGE>

    amounted to $4,035,569, including unrealized
    appreciation in the value of the Trust's investments
    of $1,166,600, as of May 31, 1998.

    The weighted average rate of earnings (including
    unrealized gains and losses) on Trust assets
    approximated 17% and 11% for the years ended May 31,
    1998 and 1997, 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 net earnings are sufficient to meet the future
    liability to contract owners.  Results of the study
    performed as of May 31, 1997 indicate that the value
    of the fund exceeds the present value of future
    claims.  The actuarial study as of May 31, 1998 is
    not yet available.  However, it is management's
    opinion that the value of the fund at May 31, 1998
    is sufficient to meet the future obligation to
    contract owners.

3.  RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS

    Hosoi is the primary 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, 1998 and 1997.

    and the amount computed using the statutory federal
    rate of 34% follows:

Total income tax provision           $  970,000  37.6%    $1,010,000  55.7%
</TABLE>

    The temporary differences which gave rise to
    significant portions of deferred taxes at May 31,
    1998 and 1997 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.

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 for such services upon the death of the
    charter member and the receipt of the issued coupon.
    In fiscal 1996, the Company accrued the $210,500
    estimated future cost of the option, and at May 31,
    1998, the net present value of future payments on
    coupons outstanding approximated $112,500.

Schedule (Modified Cash Basis) for the Year Ended May
31, 1998 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, 1998 and 1997.
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,
1998 and 1997, 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, 1998 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 (MODIFIED CASH BASIS)
MAY 31, 1998 AND 1997


1.   SUMMARY OF BUSINESS AND ACCOUNTING POLICIES
     Garden Life Funeral Plan Trust (the "Trust") was
     established by Garden Life Plan, Ltd., with
     Hawaiian Trust Company, Ltd., 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.

     The Trust comprises two separate trusts - one for
     contracts written prior to 1988 (the "Pre-1988
     Trust") and one for contracts written thereafter
     (the "Post-1988 Trust").  The financial information
     for the Pre-1988 Trust and the Post-1988 Trust has
     been combined for this financial presentation.

     BASIS OF ACCOUNTING - The statement of assets and
     trust equity is prepared on the cash basis, except
     that investment funds are stated at market values,
     which have been determined by Hawaiian Trust
     Company, Ltd., based on the closing market prices
     of the underlying portfolio of funds 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.

     OPERATION OF TRUST - The Licensee, after recovery
     of 30% of the pre-need funeral service contract
     price, is required to deposit all subsequent
     contract 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.

     CASH INVESTMENTS - Cash investments represent cash
     deposited in the trustee's cash management funds.

     INCOME TAXES - Investment income, net of Trust
     expenses, is to be distributed to the Licensee.
     In the case of the Pre-1988 Trust, income tax
     attributes related to trust income and expenses
     are reported to the Licensee for inclusion in the
     Licensee's income tax returns.  In the case of the
     Post-1988 Trust, the Trust has elected to be
     treated as a Qualified Funeral Trust (QFT).  The
     QFT reports the Trust income and expenses in its
     tax returns and pays the related taxes (as an
     expense of the Trust).  The remainder is
     distributed to the Licensee and is recognized as
     service income on the Licensee's income tax returns.
