Tanner had to come home early from his mission because of the world wide pandemic. He flew home with 300 other island missionaries. They arrived in Salt Lake at 3:30 on April 4th. Because of the Covid-19 restrictions, family was not allowed to go inside the airport and they asked that only parents come to pick them up. We waited for him in the parking garage. We were watched closely, making sure that we kept the social distancing guidelines. Church personnel, airport security, and the media were all there to watch us. Even though it wasn't the welcome home we had all dreamed of, it was STILL the BEST day EVER and one we will never forget!! Welcome home Elder Tueller!!! We love you!!! Mission complete!!
We drove back to our house and were welcomed by neighbors and family waiting to welcome him home!!
