[Dx-qsl] Marconi's gravesite

[Alan Zack]

Thanks for the info, David.

What I was thinking of is Marconi is buried in the Santa Croce Church in 
Florence along with Galileo, Michelangelo, Machiavelli, Ghilberti, etc, etc! 
I was there many years ago and there is some sort of tomb inside the church 
for Marconi.  Could be he was first buried there then later moved to Villa 
Griffone?

Anyway, another Ham provided the info about Santa Croce Church so when I 
visit it I will find out the full story.

73
