Memorial day ideas

I am having problems with this one. I want something really special to take to the cemetery for Memorial day but I just cant come up with any idea. I dont want the traditional flowers like you find at walmart . I want something unique and special. My son loved superman his passion for superman was bigger than life and he was only 4 yrs old. (he got that from his daddy) So I was thinking something in a superman theme, flowers maybe red and blue. I really dont know. Can anyone help me with this one? Any and all ideas would be much appreciated.

" When my son died I did not have the traditional suit instead he wore jeans, bandana...I think you need to go with what Cayden was to you and him liking superman is a great start. I would have more of a childrens theme and take it as far as you feel comfortable with. "
