Much more than when he was just away at school.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/9208677031537041868-1730229173721003199?l=stokerstories.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>clstokerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05000385982039013986noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9208677031537041868.post-1346866538523573792010-02-07T19:04:00.000-08:002010-02-07T19:17:22.784-08:00Tyler has been called to serve in the Italy Milan mission.
