Since there's a topic discussing the fate of Voldemorts earthly remains, I feel it's only fitting to have a discussion on where to bury the honored dead.
I feel that it's fitting that a War Memorial be built at Hogwarts and the remains of those brave souls who gave their lives should be interned there (unless their families wish to intern them elsewhere). Dumbledore tomb would head the cemetary
The students of the school should tend the cemetery as the children in some towns in France tend the graves of the soldiers of the Great War.
The lessons of the war should be taught at the school that good men should not stand idle and allow evil to florish.
The remains of Voldemort and his follower should be respectfully cremated and scattered to the winds far out to sea.

The only part of this I dont agree with is where Voldemort and the Death Eaters ashes be scattered out to sea. We dont want them poisoning the air or sea anymore than they all ready did. I think after they are cremated they should be buried at Azkaban, they all belong there anyway.
