d. November 24, 2012
Loraine Herring Post passed peacefully from this life at her home in Luling on Saturday, Nov. 24, 2012 after a courageous and lengthy illness.
She was born in Smackover, Ark., on July 9, 1931 to her parents, Davis and Effie Nash Herring. Her childhood and early adulthood were spent in El Dorado, but she never lost her love of her hometown. She was married to Gerald Post on July 21, 1950 and a few years later they relocated to Luling, where she spent the remainder of her life.
Visitation will be from 9:30 to 11 a.m. Wednesday at First Baptist Church in Luling with grandson, Ryan Post officiating assisted by Pastor Gary Keene. Funeral services will be at 11 a.m. Wednesday at the church under the direction of Falgout Funeral Home. Graveside services will be at 2 p.m. Thursday at Canaan Baptist Church Cemetery in Spearsville, under the direction of Kilpatrick Funeral Home.
Left to treasure their memories of her love, loyalty and guidance are her children, Randy Post and wife, Claire of Spearsville, Paula Post Lowry and husband, James of Destrehan, Frank Post and wife, Donna of Luling, and Alison Post Johnson and husband, Rick of Thibodaux.
She was the beloved grandmother of Ashley Dison and husband, Mark, Brad Johnson and wife, Christina, Miranda Johnson and husband, Ray, Sondra McGlocklin and husband, Jared, Ryan Post and wife, Carrie, Justin Post and wife, Julie, Bruce Lowry and wife, Kris, Laura Horne and husband, Bill, Eric Lowry, Darrin Post and wife, Meghan, and Bridget Acosta and husband, Todd. She had 17 grandchildren with two more expected to arrive soon. She is also survived and loved by a host of nieces, nephews and friends. Every one of these descendants and friends received a warm welcome in her home and truly felt that each was important to her.
She was preceded in death by her parents, Davis and Effie Nash Herring; her husband, Gerald Post; one sister, Margie Cargile; one brother, Arnold Herring; and a great-granddaughter, Destiny Millien.
Serving as pallbearers will be Justin and Darrin Post; James, Bruce and Eric Lowry; Chase Millien; Rick Johnson and Kenny Cargile. Honorary pall bearer is Brad Johnson.
The family would like to express their sincere thanks and appreciation to the staff of Hospice Compassus and sitters, Bambi Mathes, Rene Markey, Tara Messina, Gina Soriano and Leah Guidry for their faithful and compassionate care during our time of need. Sincere thanks also go out to First Baptist Church of Luling, Canaan Baptist Church and Antioch Church of Christ of Spearsville, as well as all of the friends who have supported the family in prayer and encouragement during this time.
