I remember Cora daily. I was pregnant with my first child when I met a funeral director and helped him out with doing a wig for a little girl that was abducted and murdered. This was for Cora. Daily this family is in my hearts and will never be forgotten. God Bless

I remember when they discovered Cora's body. I had heard all the stories about her missing, and then my parents called me to tell me her body was discovered on Forrest Road, about a mile from their cabin. I had walked my dog up and down that road hundreds of times. Now that I am all grown up and have children of my own, I take them by her memorial on Forrest Road every single time we go to the cabin (almost every weekend in the spring/summer). We stop, say a prayer, and we discuss the story about how she was abducted. We take this oppertunity to teach our kids stranger danger. My son, who is 11, thinks he is old enough now to outrun/overpower/outwit any abducter. When I explain that Cora was even older that him, and was on a bike and she couldn't get away, it makes him sit back and think that maybe he should be more careful as well.
I just thought her parents would like to know that even all these years later she is not forgotten, even by the people like me who never met her or her family. I have the poem on the memorial memorized I have read it so often... the one about building a bridge to heaven and bringing her back again. It still brings tears to my eyes everytime we stop. I can't imagine the hurt your family has gone through... I am so sorry for your loss.....

I grew up about 2 miles from where Cora was found. I was only 7 years old when they found her, but I still remember that day. I love driving past her memorial, I no longer live there so whenever I drive past something has changed, it's makes me proud of where I grew up. It shows the people in that area are caring, they built a memorial for a young girl whom they didn't even know and made her a part of our community. My condolences to her family and friends. Keep her memory alive!

I didnt know her personally, but noticed she was almost a year younger then me, year and 3 days, but anyway at least u know she is in heaven now, Its an awful world we live in at times, but remember, although nothing can bring Cora back, that there are people in the world who are decent, not like the monster that killed her, I am positive he will burn in hell.

I just came across this website and saw what Mark Zubnak wrote last year. I lost my daughter, Tara Kassens, 21 years ago tomorrow (June 30, 1987). It doesn't seem possible that she has been gone that long. I don't think the pain ever goes away it's just that as we go on with life we don't allow our emotions go there as often.
I really love this site and wish someone would have created one like it for Tara and all other children that were violently taken from their families. What a wonderful memorial - one that keeps on going on.
For Cora's family I wish you God's blessing as you move on with your life without your very precious daughter.
As Tara got old enough to ride her bike to town, I would always tell her to be careful and not talk to strangers, etc. It's what mom's do. Oddly, whenever I said that to her she would reply in a high pitched voice, "I'm sure mom, what are the chances of that happening to me!" It's strange that your little girl worried about herself and/or other children that had been abducted. I pray that this website might save a child/ren from having to go through what our babies had to go through. God Bless you!
