Gone, But Not Forgotten program to be held on Halloween at Gov. Caswell Memorial

How did people 150 years ago manage when a loved one passed on? What were some of the customs they practiced mourning that loss, and what happened to the person who died? Is it true that bells were installed in cemeteries so that a person who was buried could “ring the bell” if they were still alive? These questions, and many more, will be answered at a unique event hosted at the Governor Caswell Memorial at 2612 West Vernon Ave. in Kinston on Halloween from 1pm-4pm.
