A nice idea, John, but aside from the verification issue already pointed out, I think it would be a bit insensitive to have to ask someone's surviving spouse to "please ship the plaque to this address:" They're likely dealing with a lot of pain and that certainly wouldn't help.
Nice of you to think of this and of Ed Smock, John. But I believe the CAPT Joseph P. Kelly Award for Lifetime Achievement in the IUSS, of which Smokie was a recipient, adequately honors System folks with significant, lengthy service.
