MaryEllen Tyler Post, 68, was taken from us by cancer on August 24, 2008. She was born July 27, 1940 in Kirkwood, N.Y., to Howard and Mildred Tyler. She is survived by her son, Jeffrey, New Milford, Pa.; and granddaughter, Megan; also by her son and daughter-in-law, S. Blair and Karen; and grandchildren, Evan and Adam, Venice, Fla. She was preceded in death by her husband of 47 years, Edward, who lost his battle with cancer on July 30, 2008. MaryEllen worked for Dover Corp., a division of IBM, for 12 years. She moved to Port Charlotte, Fla. in 1993, and worked for Publix Supermarkets for 14 years. MaryEllen enjoyed helping the people she met each day with a smile and a kind thought. Her family and many friends will miss her dearly.

To Jeff and Steven,
Bev and I would like to extend our condolence to both of you at the loss of your mother.She was a fine lady who I met and worked with over 49 years ago. She was a devoted wife and mother who will never be forgotten. We regretted that we were unable to attend the memorial services for both your parents because we had a previous engagement which was mandatory. Our love and prayers to all.
Jim and Bev Griffin .

Jeff & Family,
I was saddened to read about your mom (and dad). We worked together at Sears years ago. Your mom rode to work with me. Great times. Please know that you are in our thoughts and prayers.

I have fond memories of playing baseball, football and kickball in the side yard. Also how we would have to try to avoid the window and wonderful garden. Thanks for the great childhood memories. You will be missed
