We Are Lebanon, Pa is a positivity project to tell stories of citizens of Lebanon, Pennsylvania. At times, we do a special series of videos to further other causes. The Kortne Stouffer Project is just that.
We Are Lebanon, Pa plans to release a new interview with one of Kortne’s family members or friends every two weeks from now until the 10th anniversary of her disappearance. The hope is that these stories might reach someone who has information, any information, that might lead to finding out what happened to her almost 10 years ago.
Betty Klick is the grandmother of Kortne Stouffer. Kortne was her first grandchild and the memories she has of her as a little girl and a young woman have had to sustain her for the last nine years. All of the hopes and dreams she held for Kortne vanished the day she went missing. Betty shares stories of Kortne as a young girl and acknowledges the toll Kortne’s disappearance has taken on her and the family.
