EDWARD POSTELLO

April 12, 1935 - February 26, 2025


With heavy hearts, we announce the passing of Edward Postello at Kildonan Personal Care Home on February 26, 2025, at the age of 89.

Ed is survived by his loving wife, Shirley; sons, Jason (Vanda) and Kevin (Patrizia); grandchildren, Jesse Postello and Amanda Postello; and sister-in-law Susan Rattai (Lloyd).

Ed was predeceased by his father and mother, Joe and Anne Postello; brother Stan; and brother-in-law Jack Kuczek (Helen).

Ed worked his entire career at National Grain and retired from Cargill Ltd. in 1999. He was an immensely proud member of the Blessed Sacrament Catholic Parish in Transcona and of the Knights of Columbus.

Ed’s love for people made him instant friends all around. He took immense pride in his family and the family cottage at Patricia Beach and trips to Pinawa. He walked many miles in the aisles of Canadian Tire.

We would like to thank the staff on the 3rd floor at the Kildonan Personal Care Home this past year for all the caring and hard work in making Dad feel welcome and at home.

In lieu of flowers, please consider donations to the Alzheimer Society of Manitoba.

In honour of Ed’s wishes, cremation has taken place.

Dad, you will remain in our hearts and will never be forgotten.

Condolences & Memories (2 entries)

  • My thoughts are with you and your family Shirley. Vonda - Posted by: Vonda Derksen (friend) on: Mar 18, 2025

  • I worked at Cargill from 1978 until 2022 and most of those early years were spent working with Ed. My best memories are of his interesting stories, often accompanied with a smile or a laugh. The one that sticks out is when he paved the driveway though, and he wasn't smiling too much then! He decided to take this on himself but it soon became very stressful as he realized there was limited time once the cement was poured. But it got done of course. I got the impression he took a lot of pride in doing things himself. My heartfelt condolences to your family Ed, I bet they have a lot of stories to tell! - Posted by: Brenda Therrien (co-worker) on: Mar 02, 2025
