A candlelight vigil to honor the life of Dr. John Forsyth is happening this weekend.
The vigil will take place at the Monett City Park on Sunday, June 11 at 8:00 p.m.
There will be a moment of silence and then an opportunity for people to share memories of Forsyth.
Forsyth was a 49-year-old emergency room doctor at Mercy Cassville. He was reported missing on May 21 when he did not show up for his shift at the hospital.
Forsyth’s body was found on May 30 in Beaver Lake about 20 miles south of Cassville. Authorities said he had been shot.
Benton County Authorities say the case is being investigated as a homicide.
