An unexpected car accident claimed the life of Hyrum Stevenson Stoker, 37, on June 8, 2018 in Centerville, Utah. He was born on October 15, 1980 in Ogden, Utah to Howard Stephen Stoker and Sharon Rosella Stevenson.

He was a favorite uncle to many, Uncle “Moe”. He was the life support and glue to his family and siblings. He was very good at planning and organizing many family and friend events.
