My name is Barbara Tyler.
I was born in St Albans , West Virginia in 1962.
I am the daughter of Milton & Jo Ann Williams-Holstein.
I was blessed with a very large
family. Over 32 aunts and uncles and nearly 40 cousins.
At an early age, my father taught me the importance
of caring about others and always giving something back. And about the richness of finding pleasure
in the simple things in life.
He would remind me to "always leave everything
better than you found it".
We moved a lot, as I grew up, so when I came
to Maryland and married John Tyler, I was able to finally settle down into one place. Johns parents are Pete(now deceased) and Lois.
And slowly...as I got to know the people of the town, the
stories and the personalitites began to unfold.
When I began working at the Wittman Post Office, I kept
a journal of the stories that happened and gradually, with the growth of computer technology... the journal
became a web site.
Its such a pleasure to....in a small way,
bring Pot Pie to life in this type of media.
