Over the years, I've trained myself to hear their tone when saying the name or asking the question.

It's been about finding my calling and figuring out the best ways to use it to bring joy to others. I see my story as a testament to the power of perseverance, authenticity, and reinvention."<br /> In his memoir, <i>Growing Up Urkel</i>, Jaleel White takes you on a memorable journey through the peaks, valleys, and plateaus of fame and fortune.
