So grateful for O'ahu mortuary and their staff for helping my 'Ohana during such difficult time. Shelly was the funeral director who assisted us with my father's passing and I couldn't be more happier with her service. I highly recommend O'ahu Mortuary. read more

When my aunt passed suddenly, we found ourselves not only in shock, but at a loss for what to do next. A family friend referred us to Oahu Mortuary and I am so thankful that they did. Darrell Salvador and his staff went above and beyond to help us deal with every aspect of what was to come. They were kind and treated us like family. They were respectful and patient as we dealt with our grief. They were proactive; anticipating our every need. They were informative, guiding us thru every step of the process. As you can imagine, this is a very difficult time for families, but everyone there worked together seamlessly to stand in the gap and guide us through. The chapel is beautiful and accommodated all of our audio visual needs. Bryce was on the job making sure everything went flawlessly during her celebration of life. Taylor, was kind and warm during moments of great sadness. And Darrell made us feel supported through it all. Truly, I cannot praise them enough. We are forever grateful. read more

Miki and the staff at Oahu were extremely pleasant and easy to work with. Miki made the process of taking care of my family's needs in regards to my uncle's passing very easy. Under the circumstances there was no pressure to buy into something that we did not need. My uncle's passing had occurred before we had our official meeting but Miki handled the whole situation with ease and walked us through everything we needed to do. Times like these can be extremely stressful, but when you with work with someone who is knowledgeable and genuinely caring about your needs it helps a lot. I would recommend Oahu Cemetery. read more

Daniel and Miki at Oahu Mortuary were thorough and went over & beyond to help us with an unexpected death. We arranged to transfer the body from Borthwick Mortuary to Oahu Mortuary. read more

This past Saturday, Feb 15th, we buried my 13-year old grandson. He was my oldest grandchild and being my oldest, he held a very special place in my heart. Unless you've been thru this, you can't fully understand the lost. My son and daughter in law decided to call Oahu Mortuary to see Darryl Salvador. We met Darryl 2 1/2 months prior when he had helped us with the cremation of my other grandson who had passed through a miscarriage. Through the whole process of arranging services for my grand babies, Darryl had gone above and beyond to make this transition easy for us. I don't usually write reviews on yelp or any other site but I needed to share how much we were touched by the way Darryl took care of us. From the moment we first called him on the phone to the moment we left the cemetery, Darryl was so very respectful to our family. He was so very professional and most of all, sympathetic to our needs. At a time like this when everyone is mourning, we never once felt like he was 'only doing his job'. He made us feel like we were family and that he was mourning alongside with us. In fact, that's how I feel toward him now...like he is ohana. Because of the way we were treated by him, I told my husband that I want him to take care of our family when it's time for us to go. I cannot express enough how grateful we are. When I think of him, I have nothing but gratitude because of him. Thank you, Darryl, for everything. You just don't know how much we appreciate all that you did. We are eternally grateful. Love and aloha, Alison read more

Katherine was very easy person to work with ,make sure you feel comfortable with your decision. Daniel was such a wonderful person that he made me feel much comfortable. Such a great gentleman, so kind and sweet! Keep up with a good job ! read more

Let me start by saying, Oahu Mortuary probably has the nicest people I've ever talked to working there and answering the phone . My Father just passed away. I'm still a teenager and this was the hardest thing I've ever endured. I called them late in the night and the intake person was so soft spoken and comforting. The people that picked up my father were so very much respectful. My mother , my brothers, and I still needed so much time. They gave us that and gave us their condolences. As they were moving him , they were so gentle with my dad and let us hug him ( my dad) and kiss him throughout the moving process. The movers wrapped him up in a beautiful soft blue blanket of some sort and carefully put him in their van. They were so respectful and made it a little easier to say out last goodbyes. My mother is very tight for money as she has to support three dependents herself and pay for the mortgage. We all work but couldn't because my dad was in hospice and we only had days before he passed in which he did. So my mom was in a pinch sadly. This lady that we spoke to over the phone was so sweet , let my mother grieve and talk about just about anything . She still managed to get in her questions that she needed but never rushed into anything . She just let the convo flow. My mother was very happy to know she could pay in installments . She put a down payment of $350. We are now not in the huge hole we thought we'd be in because of how flexible Oahu mortuary is. Thank you to the staff that made this whole process of losing our beloved father so much easier. read more

We are SO GRATEFUL for everything Oahu Mortuary has done for us. Laying a loved one to rest is stressful enough, but the staff here has been nothing but outstanding. From our first meeting to picking up my grandma's ashes, every step of the process has been a breeze. Doll, Daniel, Darryl, and Anela were the most respectful and courteous people in every single one of our interactions. Even with COVID restrictions, the staff was so accommodating and helpful. They are truly compassionate people and make you feel like they are part of your family. Daniel cried with us and made sure we had no worries the day of the services. We've never received this sort of treatment at any other facility. Their aloha shows in their work, and we highly recommend them to care for your loved one. Our grandma was undoubtedly in good hands, and that meant the world to us. MAHALO OAHU MORTUARY read more

I need to also say the entire staff was so friendly and caring. They were able to answer every question we had. The staff was genuine and attentive to our every need. Cher led us thru the entire process in an intelligent caring way. She's a good listener and helped guide us thru the process. Thank you. read more

I recently lost the love of my life, my soul mate. He passed away in Hawaii on a vacation. I leave in Los Angeles, CA and when I got the news over the phone it was devastating for me, I was in shocked for days. He was 61 years. Besides dealing with the pain and the emotions I have to deal with bringing him back to Los Angeles. I contacted the Oahu cementary and they were extremely supportive, loving and helpful. I did not know how many days it will require to take care of all of the legalities and the cremation of my loving husband. I got there and I told them that I need it to get him by Wednesday if possible. They knew that I was coming from the main land and timing was an issue. I will not get into more details anymore because still hurts to write about but I wanted to share with you that this really is a a place where they care genuinely for you and your love ones. Scott took care of us and all of his team are professional and compassionate. I don't write reviews but I wanted to do this one as a thank you for been so sensitive and helpful. Love to you all. Luis Medina. read more

Over the summer, we worked with Allison for my grandma's funeral. Before we even went in, Allison was helpful over the phone. She was able to give general price ranges when other places wanted us to come in before even talking costs. Her kindness and honesty over the phone led me to go in. In person, she was helpful in talking us through the decisions. She also made arrangements for my grandma to be buried at Punch Bowl with my grandpa. This place was a blessing during a difficult time. read more

Oahu has the best service and pricing! My third time, unfortunately, but wouldn't go anywhere else!

It's hard to believe I'm writing a review for a mortuary. My grandma passed away on December 18th and she was cremated four days later (which included a weekend). My uncle passed away a few days after my grandmother and their family used a different mortuary and was told they were "backed up" and wouldn't be able to cremate him until after January 2nd. My family visited Oahu Cemetery & Crematory because they were highly recommended by a family friend. They visited a few days before my grandma died to get the paperwork together. After grandma died, the mortuary was diligent in submitting the paperwork and making sure her cremation permit was approved in the timeline we wanted. We had a short window of time to hold her service and needed her to be cremated before then. On top of that, there was a slight delay in the state "signing off" on her permit (something about the coroner's office?). Oahu Cemetery & Crematory was on top of it, and willing to make phone calls if they had not heard by a certain time of day. Excellent customer service and everything worked out. read more

They were just the best to work with. I suppose you never want their services, but in time of need they were efficient, compassionate, kind, and understanding; the list of compliments is long, and I am beyond grateful. They are the best, look no further......Cheryl J was particularly wonderful to work with. read more

At the worst time of my life, I lost my husband to a horrible disease that he had been fighting four and a half years. He was at home, as was his wishes, and Hospice was in on the weekdays. He lost his fight at 1:07 am February 1, 2020. Prior to that Hospice told me to start calling mortuaries. They had a list, and we are very low income people, and Oahu Mortuary was the least expensive for cremation. They came and picked up his remains very sympathetically. We have no children, no family just the two of us. I had no idea how to make any kind of arrangements. He was at the mortuary for about 10 days before they could proceed with cremation, waiting for a death certificate from Hospice. They didn't charge me a dime for storing his remains. The woman who helped me, Shelly, just took over for me. She took care of his cremation, called me when his ashes were ready, along with 25 copies of his death certificate I had requested. The staff members were all very low key and comforting. Shelly did all necessary paperwork for me, had a notary on the premises for said paperwork, and did everything that needed to be done for me. This mortuary is non-profit and I wanted to write this review so others like me know where to go when they need help with making arrangements for a loved one and don't have a clue where to start. Start with Oahu Mortuary. They have your back. I don't know what I would have done without them. Thank you Shelly, Mickey and the rest of the staff who helped me. I received the ashes in a biodegradable bag inside of a box, and a canvas bag to carry them in. My husband wants a paddle out at Makaha Surfing beach, where so many of our good times were spent. The biodegradable bag will not kill any fish or harm our environment. Thank you, so much Oahu Mortuary! read more

I want to shout on the roof tops about how amazing Oahu Mortuary has been. I recently lost two loved ones a month a part. First loss, we went to another mortuary. The people we meet with were very much coming off as salesmen. We felt belittled for not having a plan in place and we're reminding that due to no plan we will be taking hours to "start from scratch." That rubbed me the wrong way. It didn't end there. My loved one was not picked up yet because they were too busy and she was at a hospital so it was ok. This was 2 days after she passed. She was finally picked up a whole 6 days later. Time for final identification. It was a picture, a very horrible looking picture. There was nothing done to make her look decent. Price was double what we paid at Oahu and the service was not something any mourning family should be receiving. The services were expensive. The chapel was not air conditioned and when asked about moving a table we were told it's up to the director. I'm sorry but when you pay thousands of dollars you should be able to move a table. 1 month later to OAHU. This place was chosen because it was inexpensive...again half the cost. From the beginning Miki was very empathetic, he didn't try to upsell and we finished the plans in 30 mins. I was also so incredibly touched to have the option to see my loved one for 5 mins at no cost. I was on a plane when she passed and the other family member was flying in and never got to see her. Appt was made for 2 days later and I was preparing myself for a horrific scene because of the pic we were shown at the other place. My loved one was made up and looked so peaceful. I so very much appreciated the care and effort. My last vision of her was a good one. Fast forward. She was cremated and ready to come home 6 days after she passed. Other place did not cremate until the 9th day and she was ready the day after. 9 days after her passing the death certificates were ready. I wish we knew about this place before. I am over the top grateful and very much so recommend OAHU Mortuary when you need them. Thank you so much to all the staff that made this process a less stressful and very much peaceful one. read more

I attended a funeral and full military honors burial this Tuesday. The whole operation was well handled, but what surprised and impressed us more than anything else was this: the so-called grounds keepers, who only an hour beforehand were covered in sweat and mud, were standing there alongside the coffin to lower it into the ground. They had somehow groomed their uniforms' appearance, wiped the sweat off their brows, had matching construction helmets with matching veteran imprints on them, and were standing at attention with absolute respect for the veteran's last goodbye. His grief-stricken widow, even at that emotional moment, saw the beauty of this tribute: the six men lowered the coffin with straps clenched and reeling from their left hands, and saluted in unison. It was just awesome. The honor guard, as always and as expected, were flawless as well, but not connected to the mortuary, just working in flawless concert with their organization. read more

I have always relied on Yelp to find a good restaurant, but I never thought in a million years it would help me find the best mortuary in a sad time of need. By brother passed on Valentine's day (Feb 14, 2020) and I, being in California and not having any resource referrals, was lost on what to do and where to begin to find a place. I turned to yelp and was directed to O'ahu Mortuary where I read sparkling reviews. From the first phone call Shelly Tomlinson took excellent care of me, walking me through ALL of the details and arrangements for: transportation from the hospital, a simple cremation, shipping the ashes, ordering death certificates and posting a memorial notice in the local paper. Every step of the way Shelly was kind, empathetic, patient and professional-and made the process (via email) so easy for me. I truly felt like a trusted caring person was taking care of my brother, which was so comforting when I couldn't be there myself. I cannot say enough about the thoughtful and caring way, the attention to detail and the genuine kindness that was shown me by Shelly and the O'ahu Mortuary staff in my sad time of need....thank you again. It is with gratitude and much appreciation that I whole-heartedly recommend O'ahu Mortuary. read more

I unfortunately lost my rock, my wife way to ealry in life. Words cannot and will not never be able to show my gratitude to the entire staff of Oahu Mortaury. From the first time stepping foot onto the property we were greeted with warmth and kindness. They make you feel comfortable and you truly fell the compassion of the staff right away. The grounds crew greet you with a smile and keep the property beautiful. The entire office staff we encountered were very helpful and kind. To the creamation staff who helped preoare my rock and again made the family feel welcomed with their warmth and compassion. Most of all to Shelly, who helped from start to finish to fulfill my wife's desire for a full Military Funeral. I/We are truly overwhelmed by the work she put in to help us. She went above and beyond in doing her job and made such a painful time easier to handle for the entire family. So again I say THANK YOU to Shelly and the ENTIRE STAFF for helping my family and giving a Daughter,Sister,Airman,Mother and Wife the full Military Funeral she wanted and deserved. Thank you, Robert Corner read more

My dad recently passed away and no arrangements had been made in advance to handle his cremation and memorial service. We were at a real loss about where to start. Our first call to Oahu Mortuary got us in touch with Gloria, who was kind, supportive and able to give us a lot of initial information. Our angel in disguise, Shelly, did the actual work for us and took care of everything from the obituary to scheduling the inurnment at Punchbowl National Cemetery. She was absolutely wonderful. She responded quickly and made sure everything happened exactly as we wanted it to. Taylor was responsible for the cremation and couldn't have been any more accommodating and supportive. The team at Oahu Mortuary was able to make this difficult and stressful time for us as special and simple as possible. We will be eternally grateful and they have our most positive recommendation. read more

Ok. I'm going to write a review of a graveyard because I feel compelled to... Oahu Cemetery is in my opinion, probably thee most picturesque graveyard on Oahu. I remember coming to this graveyard as a young boy to visit and place flowers for my grandfather. In the beginning it was more of a fun outing, a morbid thought, but the place has a little stream running into a small pond with all kinds of fish, turtles, crayfish, even ducks and ducklings! Running among the headstones and getting scolded for not respecting the final resting place of those who went before. In the graveyard of today, not much has changed. It's still a very beautiful, peaceful place. There are many Victorian style gravesites, various angels and cherubs guarding their charges... Many noteworthy and prominent citizens of old and modern Hawaii reside here. One notable person I saw is Alexander Joy Cartwright, known as the "Father of modern baseball". There are also many ethnic groups represented and my grandparents are interred in the Japanese section. The majestic Monkey Pod trees and neatly manicured grounds really pay homage to those who went before us, those who did their part to make these Islands a better place for all who came after. This will always be my favorite graveyard, not only for my family who are here, but for the rich historic value this place has and most of all, for the tranquility... read more

See all

Do not deal with this company. I'm in charge of my dads estate but they gave all my paperwork I need to close his estate to someone else and brushed me off when I questioned them. I paid over 1500 dollars for everything. They took my money and now brushed me off. My dads watching you from above. They make all nice when you go there then after they have your money it's a different story. read more

OK, it's a little odd to review a cemetery at which one has not been a "customer", so to speak. (Though if you'd been a customer I suppose you'd have more pressing concerns...) But this is a pretty interesting place to visit. There are a lot of historical figures & famous names from Hawaii's past, and the grounds are well-kept. The inventor of baseball is buried here, and it's interesting to see the tributes that visiting fans have left atop his grave. read more

Oahu Cemetery has an amazing staff that assists families with sincerity and aloha. Please allow me to be blunt, sometimes death sucks. We need people like Darrell Salvador and staff to guide us through these difficult moments. Oahu Cemetery's employees are amazingly kind while being professional. They do not make you feel like their aim is to gauge you for money or up-sell you funeral packages. Darrell patiently and warmly walked us through the process of cremation and paperwork while comforting us. I would recommend them to anyone and feel good doing so. Let's face it, death is inevitable, but it is reassuring to know that good, solid people are out there in this field to assist families. The website is straightforward and easy to navigate. All of our needs were dealt with seamlessly and in a fastidious manner. After getting in touch with Darrell some of my worries pertaining to the viewing and cremation process were immediately put at ease. I am happy to recommend these folks and going forward, Oahu Cemetery will be the only organization I will use during these type of life events. read more

No one wants to think about losing a loved one, but when this happens, you'll want (and probably need) the support of staff like those at Oahu Mortuary. If you find yourself having to make arrangements for your loved one, call them....you'll be glad you did. read more

Our mom passed while on vacation in Hawaii. Her wish was to be cremated upon passing, and I was faced with arranging for this while on the mainland and trying to cope with overwhelming grief. I called four or five other funeral homes prior to calling Oahu Cemetery & Crematory. After about 2-3 minutes talking to Blanca, the managing director, I knew this was the place. She outlined all that needed to be done and finished up with something along the lines of: but you don't need to think about any of that. And she indeed followed through and made it happen with great efficiency, precision and thoroughness. Within minutes I had emails from her. Sign, scan, send with picture for identification - done. Next, a follow-up phone call which began with: we will get mom here and under our care as quickly as possible. Comforting words, and she followed through on her promise. Mom was quickly transferred from the county morgue and cremated the next day. Blanca also obtained a transit permit for mom's remains, sent a death certificate worksheet should I need it until the official certificate was received and provided lots of other useful information. It turned out that I did not need the worksheet because she somehow managed to work magic in getting the requested number of official certificates in a matter of days when I had been told by other sources that it can take anywhere from 4-12 weeks. True to my initial impression, Blanca proved to be a person who genuinely cares and was clearly dedicated to lifting as much of the burden from my shoulders as possible. As far as Oahu Cemetery & Crematory in general, all staff were warm and helpful and there was never any hint of upsell, price gouging, hidden costs, or wide-ranging price brackets with difficulty getting a precise cost. They are honest and transparent. Thank you Blanca and all staff who assisted. You have our deepest gratitude. read more

Oahu Mortuary provided my family with a pleasant sunsetting service for my daughter who unexpectantly passed away at age 25 on April 18, 2019.

My daughter looked beautiful and the arrangements, music and multimedia were exceptional. Thank you so much for making a difficult situation peaceful. read more

I have had to work with Oahu mortuary two times in less than two months... I had a miscarriage and from the first time we called, we worked with Darrell. He did not make my family feel silly or Less important because I had missed carried early in pregnancy. He took care of me and treated my family with the utmost respect. He always kept us in close contact and let us know when things where happening. When he would pick up baby's remains from the hospital when they were going to do cremation. When my son died in January, I called again and asked to work with Darrell because of the care and respect he had given us just a few weeks ago. This by far has been the hardest two months of my life... Once again Darrell had cared for my family the entire way of the planning. Always keeping in close contact. He let me know when things were being done and let me know that my son was being treated with care. Oahu Mortuary did a wonderful job preparing my son for his funeral service. He really looked natural. Not covered in makeup. Not once did I feel like any questions that I had were silly or a waste of time. Darrell never came off as a pushy sales person or treated me as a job. He took care of me and my family and I will forever be great full for the sincere care he has given us in these most difficult times. read more

My wife, children and grandchildren were visiting Kona when my wife became very ill. She was helicoptered to Honolulu where there are specialists that were not in Kona. In Honolulu, she died. We had talked about cremation, and both had agreed that cremation was what we wanted for ourselves. I decided to have her cremated in Honolulu and shipped to Colorado Springs where we lived, so I could get back to my family who had gone back to Colorado Springs earlier. So without any knowledge of mortuaries in Honolulu, I started calling. One seemed to be a good choice, but couldn't see me on that day. I wanted to make all the arrangements that day because I had a flight scheduled for that night. I asked that mortuary who she could recommend that might be able to see me that day. She said to try Oahu Mortuary. I called Oahu Mortuary, and they said they could meet me right away. I took a cab over to meet them and Cher and Miki couldn't have been nicer. I knew right away that this was this place to handle my wife's remains. The price was very competitive. But what sold me was their sincere caring. After the arrangements had been made, Miki insisted on driving me back to where I was staying rather than calling a cab. Cher told me that she would email me at each stage of the process, and she did. She prodded the doctor to complete his death report, worked with the hospital to get all the paperwork done, monitored getting the medical examiner approval, had the body picked up from the hospital, scheduled the cremation with the clothes I picked out for my wife (from the hospital, she was just in a hospital gown), and shipped out the cremains. At each stage, she updated me with emails. The death certificates should arrive tomorrow, and my experience with Oahu Mortuary will be over. But if you need a mortuary that is helpful, friendly, and does what they say, you can't go wrong with Oahu Mortuary. read more
