People told fun stories about Sherrill Levitt, Suzie Streeter, and Stacy McCall.  "We went camping for spring break our senior year and it was cold... lots of good memories," one friend recalled.  After people told stories, candles were lit and four lanterns were let go for the women.  One lantern for each and the last was for all of them.  Stacy's mother, Janis McCall, had many stories about the group. She says this was not a memorial.  "Thank all of you for coming out here for the celebration of the lives of three women," she said to the cr

Those at the gathering took part in a candlelight vigil and a release of Japanese lanterns in honor of the three. Suzanne and Stacy graduated from Kickapoo High School the nig

(KY3) - A quarter of a century is still not enough time to heal wounds when there are no answers. "All I want to know is where they are. If you sold them to someone, let me know. If you have disposed of them in some horrendous manner, please let me know," pleaded Janis McCall. The unknown has tortured McCall since her daughter, Stacy McCall, graduated from Kickapoo High School.

Three women went missing and no evidence of what happened to them was left behind. But a quarter of a century later police are still investigating. For 25 years, thousands of tips have come in and many theories considered, but police say there's simply not enough evidence that makes any of those theories a viable one. At this point, it would take that one person with that one piece of information to come forward. "It's real, it happened in Springfield, Missouri," said David Asher, a retired detective who worked on the case years ago. Three women, Sherrill Levitt, her daughter Suzie S

Facebook and Myspace came on the scene around three years before that, in 2004. It's hard to believe, but you would have to venture 12 more years in times past to get a glimpse of technology in 1992. Tracking crimes was much different back then. They didn't have what detectives now call a 'Digital Fingerprint'. “They left the party at Battlefield, somewhere around 2 a.m., and their vehicle was found around 12 p.m. at the Delmar address,” said David Millsap.  “We would have been able to get

"We were on a roller coaster that would go up and down and up and down and that roller coaster would say, we think we have them," said Janis McCall, Stacy's mother. Twenty-five years later there is no sign of the women and no known suspect. For the families of the missing women, coping with the disappearance over the years has changed them. Janis and her husband, Stuart, have grandchildren today. "We became even more protective of our f

A reporter sought to find those in the Ozarks who have yet to call the event one of the past, those who take some part of the 25 year old case with them every day, or in other words, those who refuse to forget.  The faces of Sherrill (SP) Levitt, her daughter Suzie Streeter and Streeter's high school friend Stacy McCall have been preserved in photographs and videos for the past 25 years.

The three went missing from Levitt's home. Even through extensive investigations and searches, to this day, they are still nowhere to be found.

We sat down with men who were on the ground from the beginning and one officer who picked up the torch ten years into the investigation. "I wish we had solved that case back then, but I pray daily that this case is solved before I leave this world. I won't have to get up to glory to see the girls to see what happened," Retired Sgt.

They hung in barbershops and grocery stores, gas stations and rest areas, any place where people could see them. Many were a bright yellow then with the word “Missing,” and they implored everyone to help bring home Sherrill Levitt, her daughter Suzie Streeter and friend Stacy McCall. Today, on what marks a quarter century since the Springfield women disappeared, this flyer inside Coyote’s Adobe Cafe & Bar is one of the few that remain, its faded print proof that this southwest Missouri
