Help find a Korean War veteran's grave

I just wrote the profile for Carroll Ashley Fuquay. It's one of the saddest profiles I've written. He was born in 1931. Enlisted in the Army in 1951 and fought in Korea for two years.

He returned home, married, and had a son named after him. Then his life fell apart. He was arrested for drunk driving and fined. Then he was arrested for assault of a female and remanded to Domestic Relations Court.

His wife divorced him. He remarried. Then he was arrested twice in two months for drunk driving and sentenced to six months in prison. His second wife divorced him.

He married a third time, but he died just three years later. He died in 1979, at the age of 48. I have zero information about his death or burial. All I know is a date.

As a veteran myself (Vietnam era), it's clear to me that he likely suffered from PTSD that went undiagnosed. He saw or did or experienced something in Korea that haunted him for the rest of his short life.

Help me find out where this veteran died and where he was buried. He deserves to be reconnected with his family on FindAGrave.

May he rest in peace.

Yes, I've seen that. It's for his father and mentions him as a son. I'm looking for anything that describes where he died and what the disposition of his body was. (Burial in a national cemetery, cremation, etc.)
