The city of Kirksville will host Founders Day festivities at 10 a.m. on May 13 at Forest-Llewellyn Cemetery. The city will dedicate a gravestone for Charles and Nancy Rorabaugh. Charles was a Kirksville businessman who died in a plane crash in 1919. He was part of a group that planned to bring a plane to Kirksville that would be used for traveling physicians. Charles was buried without a gravestone, as was his mother, Nancy, when she was buried next to him in 1924. Curtain Call Theatre Company will then perform Cemetery Theatre from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. that afternoon. Different figures from Kirksville’s past will be portrayed.
