I'm not sure really...maybe just another section called The Memorial Wall or The Last 10-Zero or something? (Does that sound cheesey???)

Just somewhere for people to post all the condolences, messages of support, maybe obituary? etc. Riksta's "speech" (for lack of a better term) would fit well in there. Motivational, memorial type stuff. Post pics, vids, poems, inspirational quotes...

Fairly closely moderated to keep the political and/or opinion stuff out of it or to a minimum. Question

I agree that it would be a good idea. Perhaps we could have one for each Emergency Service, or a combined one for all Services??
