My great uncle died in France in WWII. Apparently my great grandmother was distraught. She had him buried there and all of his medals were in a box in the back if the guest room closet. No one spoke his name even decades later because she would burst into tears. After she passed away my aunt had them mounted and hung them in my grandmothers house. But they were never displayed or cared about by my great grandmother.

Donation to a museum is a great idea if family doesn't want them.
