Marble has been the material of choice for monuments for many hundreds of years. Along with its material properties (strong, soft, allows light to pass through it) it is also easily maintained and extremely durable over time. The corrosive salt atmosphere and tropical environment of Hawaii makes rock the ideal choice over other materials, and white marble is the historical choice of material for monuments in the U.S., as well as other countries.
