I didn't know Cora, but thank you for sharing her story! She was definitely taken to soon. I was just having my second child, a son and leaving my state job to spend time with he and his older brother. I am now the mother of four including two young daughters. I look at how much the world has changed since the 90s. You would think living in a rural area, who would be out to harm? We live in a rural area but I keep a close tab on my children because things are so different and changing daily. I am truly happy justice was served. Cora will always have a part in my heart...my prayers are with you. Always remember Cora had a very special gift...God needed her.

I was 5 when Cora passed away, and lived in waupaca at the time. I remember not being allowed off the bus until my father Dan Schwerin came to get me at the bus stop up infront of the Parfreville United Methodist Church. I remember what my dad told me when they found Cora and then i remember what my classmates told me, very different stories. I was raised in the church and that taught me to welcome everyone and before Cora's tragedy I would walk up t anyone and start to talk, but after i learned about Cora it finally stuck not to talk to strangers. I remember praying at church and in my home for Cora with my family and even though it was an aweful thing that happened that year, it taught kids at my school and the community to becareful and stopped the abductor from getting another chance to do harm, thank you for my lesson, and your family has always, and always will be in my families prayers.

I never met Cora or her family, but I felt compelled to find more out about her life and family on this day of September 12, 2009. I was the same age as Cora when she passed away and my mom was forever touched by Cora's story. My mom and I prayed many times for your family. Thank you for being a light to our world and letting me take a glimpse into her precious life. God Bless you and your family.

The first time I ever went roller skating was with Cora, we must have been 9 or 10 years old, but I don't remember for sure. She dragged me out and made me do one of those couples' skates where we held hands and skated around in circles. I couldn't stay off my butt to save my life, but she held my hand and kept me up. I still remember how sweaty and slippery our palms were but we didn't let go. I'll always remember her that way: helping and never letting go.

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 live in Wisconsin and can remember when Cora went missing. I pray ed for Cora and her family, that everything would turn out okay, but it was not to be. I have a daughter and cannot even imagine the loss her family has suffered. God bless you Cora.
