\"\"TYLER — A march through downtown Tyler was held in support of the former Bishop of Tyler, Bishop Joseph Strickland on Saturday morning. Bishop Strickland was removed as the Bishop of Tyler by the Vatican last Saturday on Nov. 11.

Saturday’s march was organized by the Knights of The Republic and it started at 10 a.m. in downtown Tyler.<\/p>\n
