Today Denny and his brothers
Mike and Rick Tyler each own equal
shares in tec business. Denny is presi-
dent, Mike vice-president and Rick
Tyler is secretary-treasurer. Both
Denny and Rick have sons who work
at the store, and Denny’s grandson
Brian Banks, now 21, worked there
before joining the Navy.
“It’s been a family-operated deal
forever," Denny Tyler said.
They arc not the only family
members in the furniture business. To
start the store, George Tyler
borrowed S2.000 from his brother
J.W. Tyler, who had 10 stores.
Denny’s cousin Ed Wells formerly
operated Wells Furniture in Sapulpa,
and he has cousins in the furniture
business in Purcell and Stratford.
Another uncle had a store in Ponca
City.
Tyler Furniture originally started
as half of the first floor at 9 N. Water.
“Now we own the building we
started in,” Denny Tyler said. George
Tyler retired in 1975. but later opened
the used furniture now at his original
location.
“He retired for about five years and
got bored," Denny Tyler said.
The main furniture store moved to
its present location in 1956. Tyler
said they purchased the building for
$2,500, then bought an adjacent space
for Si0.000 two years later. Tyler
said the building used to be a feed
