Peter Tyler Obituary

Published by Legacy Remembers on Jan. 18, 2024.
Peter Tyler, 79, of Eagleville, PA, passed away on January 12, 2024. Peter was a loving husband to his wife, Ann, for 54 years, a devoted father, a proud grandfather, a loyal friend, and a brother Marine. Born on January 22, 1944, in Raleigh, NC, Peter served in the United States Marine Corps 1964-1967, attaining the rank of Sergeant. He served a full tour in Vietnam.

After his military service, Peter worked at United Refrigeration and Air Conditioning, Inc. He later followed his passion for antiques and established Tyler's Antiques, a business that he loved and through which he developed many friendships. Peter's love for dogs led him to become actively involved in the training and showing of English Labrador Retrievers. He was a proud member of the Keystone Labrador Retriever Club and was passionate about maintaining the breed standard.

Peter is survived by his wife, Ann (nee Dougherty) Tyler, his daughters Alicia Agatone and Christine Braun, his son-in-law Timothy Braun, his grandchildren Matthew, Ashley, Emilie, Vivien, and Douglas, and many nieces and nephews whom he cherished. He was preceded in death by his granddaughter Sophia Agatone, his brothers Marshall Tyler and Hank Tyler, his mother Mary (Foy) Tyler, and his father Marshall A. Tyler.

Peter's hobbies included gardening, antiques, and his dedication to training and showing Labrador Retrievers. He found joy in maintaining the breed standard.

A memorial service will be held on Friday, January 26, 2024, at 10 am at Washington Crossing National Cemetery located at 830 Highland Road, Newtown, PA 18940. Attendees are requested to arrive by 9:40 am.

Peter's final resting place will be at Washington Crossing National Cemetery, where he will be honored for his service to our country. Peter will be deeply missed by all who knew and loved him.

Alicia, Ann and family. So sorry for your loss. I can understand what you´re going through. I have seen all the cars across the street and wondered if something had happened to Pete. It was only a few weeks that we chatted out front. I know he was looking forward to moving in. I´ll keep you all in my prayers. Love to all. Nancy Crist

Sending love, prayers and our condolences on behalf of Gerry & Kimmy on Walker Lane.

Loosing a spouse is difficult, Mom & I have both experienced that. If you need anything we are here for you Ann. Alicia & Christine, thinking of you and your families too.

Grateful for Peter´s service! What a wonderful man he was. We always enjoyed talking with him. I remember him giving my puppy Oreo a tennis ball, as a welcome to the neighborhood gift. Oreo is now 16!

Stay encouraged!

Lovingly,
Kimmy
