SIRACUSA:I see thank you for clarifying that. We and some of the paperwork we have it says that Mr. Ibbetson is willing to respect and maintain the graves and Im wondering if that poses an advantage for you and your family or if you would object to that? Would you feel that there for some religious or cultural reasons that he might not be the proper person or be unable or possibly unwilling to take on that job. Or that it might cut and your family out from being able to come and (inaudible)? HAALILIO:No, no. I have no doubts that Mr. Ibbetson would still stand good to the, his gracious offer to continue to maintain, permit the maintenance of the cemetery. My concern, my immediate concern would be the flow of traffic, the easement to the place. As far as I know, the driveway on the left is the only one that we know as being acceptable to entrance to those burial plots. I assume that it would also be acceptable as entrance to the dwelling of Mr. Ibbetson. However, Im finding that theres another easement on this other side that seems to be more frequently used. So, my concern is where that parallel line is toward the bottom of plot A onthatwholebottomportionabout1/3ofthataremyfamilymembers.Anditisjust immediately next, its inches away from the driveway. And inches away that Mr. Ibbetson did plant foliage and what not to set apart the portion thats closer to his house dwelling. But my concern is the flow of traffic it would side swipe the wall or whatever little retaining wall there is next to our, our familys plots. SIRACUSA:Well one of the reasons that I asked you about how you felt about Mr. Ibbetson maintaining the gravesites is because Im looking at some of these pictures and some of them look like theyre pretty overgrown. And Im wondering if thats an example of his maintaining or if its just because none of your family has had a chance to get there for a while and do some weeding or-? HAALILIO:It is not, as far as I know. The cemetery sits on his private property. SIRACUSA:Mm hm. HAALILIO:As far as I know, we had agreed as relatives of the deceased to maintain our family situations as best as possible okay. From the pictures I dont think, it kind of belies the fact that Mr. Ibbetson does have some beautiful plants. Beautiful foliage surrounding the edge of the cemetery lot. But it is in the middle of a forest area you know so no matter what photos you take you are going to catch brush and trees immediately surrounding because thats the layout of the place. And maybe on your way back to Hilo you can stop by and take a look at it so you would have a very actual visual feel of what it is. But it has been maintained pretty well, theres mostly rocks. But some of the other family members all of whom I am not totally aware as to whom they are do come on their own time. SIRACUSA:Would you feel more comfortable if the burial areas were set aside from the rest of the property by a fence? HAALILIO:Its pretty well set-aside by a stone wall all the way around. That A portion is all stone wall. Its just that down on the bottom portion its low, its very low. But Mr. Kaiawes concern is where his familys deceased, which is makai side of the dwelling, EXHIBIT B 10
