I had a couple of notes asking where exactly Dan is buried. They were interested specifically in the Missouri Veterans Cemetery. Dan use to use APRS (ham radio Automatic Position Reporting System) tracking frequently when traveling. So I thought it was appropriate to put his call sign and location on the APRS map. It took me a while to get around the problem of not knowing his APRS-IS password. I also could not find and appropriate and respectful icon to put on the APRS map. There were lots of options for every thing from police to canoes to RV's and airplanes etc., but they all mean something in real time to other amateurs. So I just chose a generic solid color one for "shelter".
