Gustav's obituary says he was buried in Forest Home Cemetery but the Death record information indicates he was buried in Woodlawn Cemtery (Potters Field). Just got off the phone with Forest Home (who also handles Woodlawn's records) and he is indeed buried in Woodlawn Cemetery in the Catholic section. Section: WN-CATH2 Location: Row 2 grave #9
