Steve Post, my boss and friend, how unbelievable to try to comprehend your gone from us. I am so glad you were in my "dash" and part of my life. You made me laugh, respected the new girl, you were true and honest. I recall all of your family stories, and how you lit up talking about Kim and the kids. No Dad was prouder, I am so sorry for your loss, but hearing Steve talk about you all ... your a team and a winning team. Care for each other and shadow the love he gave you. My Dad passed way to early, but I feel him everyday. He has even saved my life a few times, be quiet when you need him he will be with you. Some day you will see him in the stars, hold the people you love tight, some day laugh because that is what he wanted for you. Love life, tennis and appreciate his legacy. I cry with you, from what he joked was the left coast, but I am with you in missing Steve and I was honored to work with him. So sorry, Nancy Rudser VZW

I am saddened beyond words. What an awesome dad and husband and friend. I have the fondest memories of Post and Kim checking Mel and Chris out of school early for some family adventure (often in the homeland they loved) and both of them loudly yelling at me on the way in the building and out. I always wanted to tag along. They are my kind of peeps!!!! The Post family has been and will always be one of the most awesome families I have ever had the pleasure of knowing in my 31 years as a PE teacher. You are all in my thoughts and prayers. Love Always, Lineberry

Dear Kim and Family,
I am so deeply sorry to hear about Steve's passing! It literally stopped me in my tracks when I heard ... and i've been reflecting on it and remembering him every day since. I have absolutely wonderful memories of Steve and the time we spent with many groups of friends -- large and small -- at Ramapo High School, including being basketball teammates for many years. My deepest sympathies for your tragic loss and I hope his memory can bring you peace and strength in the coming years.

Kim and Family, I am so sorry to hear of Steve's passing. I want to share something with you that I hope brings you comfort in this very difficult time.
I was leaving the neighborhood one night not long ago and as I drove down the street, my headlights flashed on you and Steve walking down the street. In that instant I was privileged to see the love between the two of you. You were looking up at him and smiling and he was laughing and looking at you. It was such a beautiful moment and I will never forget it. I wish I could print this picture and give it to you but you lived it. Thanks for sharing your love with me.
