Susan Stays

One would have to have been in our position to appreciate the sense of helplessness we experienced in our quest for Lisa's whereabouts. It had seemed to us a logical move to report her disappearance to the Illinois authorities, since that was where she was staying at the time. We put all our faith in them to do their best, and unfortunately that faith was misplaced.

When we learned the whole story and found that our girl had been given a beautiful funeral at the Gant Funeral Home in Reedsburg, we were overwhelmed with gratitude and relief and joy. We viewed that service on videotape right in the courthouse, openly weeping, It is over for us now, the long nights of wondering, but we know it is only beginning in earnest for those involved in the investigation.

To all of them, we can only say thank you and hope they know that we have very good feelings towards all of them. A part of our hearts will remain with our Lisa forever in your lovely Wisconsin.

Yeah, bold. She wasn't afraid of things. She was, you know, just go out there and do whatever she wanted, within reason. But, you know, I mean, she wasn't a fearful child. She was very... Bold. Curious. Yeah.

And she was, in her early years, she was a very good student. She was a smart girl. As she drifted into her teens, she got distracted with, you know, teenage stuff. And that's when she just sort of, you know, lost track of what I'd call her childhood. I sometimes worry that maybe we were too hands-off.

But, you know, there's a balance between, you know, riding herd on your kid and letting them, you know, learn for themselves.
