50-Year Search: Sister Still Missing
Every year, in honor of her sister's birthday, Lisa Davidson embarks on a journey along the Appalachian Trail, which stretches 2,100 miles from Georgia to Maine. Lisa’s sister, Brenda Davidson, was 14 years old when she disappeared 50 years ago.

“You know, part of me believes that she is out there living life and doesn't realize that I'm searching for her,” said Lisa. “What if she's out there and doesn't even know who she is anymore? Maybe somebody will recognize her.”

March 4 marks 50 years since Brenda walked out the door and vanished. No one knows what happened to her, but one thing is clear: Lisa misses her big sister.

“I was seven when she went missing. I only have photos of us together to look at and hold on to,” said Lisa. “I want her to come home.”
