QR code on grave.jpg

An IT expert has fitted a barcode to his father's gravestone which when scanned reveals the story of the war hero's part in the Arctic Convoys of the Second World War.

Developer Joe Davies used QR code technology to install the barcode on the headstone, giving those who visit former Merchant Seaman Charles Davies's final resting place, an interactive guide of his life.
Anyone with a smartphone or tablet computer can scan the barcode, which then takes them to a specially created memorial webpage on the site Forever Missed.
