Boy Sends Charity Shoebox Across The World, 11 Years Later It Comes Back

Working Away

Tyrel Wolfe worked alongside his dad as a trail-and-bridge builder for state parks and saved up money to finance another trip to the Philippines.

Only this time he was not going to make the trip alone.

Parents’ Conflict

Tyrel’s father was supportive of his son’s decision to go back for Joana, but his mother wasn’t.

Tyrel’s mother was less enthusiastic about the idea because she felt they were still young and didn’t know each-other well enough. But when it comes to the heart, there’s no stopping what it wants.
