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.
Wendy Stouffer Hammel is the mother of Kortne Stouffer. Like any mother whose daughter has vanished, Wendy just wants to know what happened to Kortne. Her world and her family has never been the same since Kortne disappeared from her apartment in Palmyra. In this interview Wendy shares about Kortne and how her disappearance has changed her life and her family.
Background
Kortne Stouffer disappeared from her apartment in Palmyra on July 29, 2012.

At the time of her disappearance, Kortne had worked as a salon and spa employee and as a pet groomer. She had blond hair, was 5 feet 8 inches tall, weighed 115-120 pounds and had a “One Love” tattoo on her right arm, three stars on her right foot and a pistol shooting flowers on her left side.
