of the bruner house here in silverthorne, colorado. hardly a night to take a walk. certainly not an all-night walk. had she hurt herself or had someone else hurt her? it wasn t like stephanie roller-bruner to just disappear. seemed more likely a stranger might be involved or stephanie herself might have run off into despair and maybe hurt herself. stephanie s friends and family poured over those last few weeks, so full of change, secrecy, turmoil. were there clues? of course, some knew about stephanie s relationship with her new man and how upset she was about losing her job. still, she seemed to be holding the trouble at bay. six weeks before she disappeared, as dale recalled, she suggested a little family holiday. she said let s go to glenwood springs for the weekend, all classic, wonderful place. it was almost romantic, said dale, just like the old days.
