Sandra Post Obituary

Post, Sandra Kay

Sandra Kay Post, a caring and loving wife, mother, grandmother, sister, and friend, passed away on January 6, 2024, in Springfield, Ohio. Born on March 16, 1950, in Paintsville, Kentucky, to the late Charles and Pearl (Salyers) Crace. Sandy is survived by her loving husband of 30 years, John Phillip Post, sons: Robert Darrell (Shelli Renee) Dement Jr., Shawn Eric (Meghan Anne) Dement, step-children; Brent (Kristi) Post, Grant (Patti) Post, and Nancy Hale, grandchildren: Kacey Bryant (MaCayla) Dement, Trey William (Trisha) Dement, Tanner Bryce (Savanah) Dement, Kennedy Mae Dement, and Drew Eric Dement, step-grandchildren; Kami, Kirk, Noah, Hannah, and Nate, great-grandchildren; Emerson, Liam, Luna, Ruby, Miller, Oaklee, Grayson, and Palmer, step-great-grandchildren; Roslyn, Leo, Vinny, Rush, Eva, and Teague, brothers: Darrell (Bonnie) Crace and Greg (Tina) Crace, sister, Debbie (Gary) Stoll, and numerous nieces and nephews. Along with her parents, Sandy was preceded in death by her sister, Mary Crace. Sandy's passion for helping people led her to pursue a career in nursing after obtaining her BSN from Franklin University. She served as a faithful nurse at Mercy Hospital, Ohio Valley Hospital, and even a hospital in Florida. She dedicated many years to this noble profession before retiring from Mercy Hospital. Sandy's commitment to caring for others was unparalleled, and her patients always felt comforted by her compassionate presence. Outside of work, Sandy enjoyed various hobbies and interests including reading, going on walks, and watching the Cincinnati Reds. Her and Phil enjoyed traveling to Florida and spending their winters in North Ft. Myers, cherishing every moment spent together. Additionally, Sandy found great pleasure in visiting Amish country. Sandy was a strong woman of faith and dedicated member of the Central Christian Church, Springfield. Sandy's kindness and compassion touched the lives of many throughout her journey. Above all, Sandy's top priority was loving and spending time with her grandchildren and great-grandchildren. She will be deeply missed by all who had the pleasure to know and love her, but her legacy of love and selflessness will continue to inspire generations to come. To honor Sandy's life, visitation services will be held on Thursday, January 11, 2024, from 5:00-7:00 pm at the Jackson Lytle and Lewis Life Celebration Center, Springfield. An additional visitation hour will take place on Friday, January 12, 2024, from 10:00-11:00 with the funeral service beginning at 11:00 a.m., all at the funeral home. Sandy will be laid to rest at the Rose Hill Burial Park immediately following the services. In lieu of flowers, memorial contributions may be made to the Food Pantry or Soup Kitchen in Sandy's honor.

To Carrie and the Post family,
A gem has been removed from your lives. Sandy was my Charge Nurse at Mercy Hospital when I first started my Nursing Career. She was one of the best. She used to call me for my birthday, she would say "have to call the queen, it's her day." My loving name for her was "Aunt Sandy" she will truly be missed.

My dear,sweet,special friend. I will always remember our lunches at Applebees. It was something I looked so forward to seeing you when we could get together.We could always text or call but this was always a special time. We would talk as if we had just talked the day before but sometimes it had been awhile. Never out of my thoughts or prayers though.My life was made richer by having you as my special friend. You were always there for me and I hope I was there in your heart if you needed me. There will be an empty place in my heart for your smile and your voice. You were one special lady! Phil and family, I heard many wonderful things over the years about all of you. I am sure your hearts are breaking but know that Heaven gained a beautiful angel and she so loved you all and will be watching down upon you. Bea Hohenstein
