David H. Post

David Howard Post was born on April 18,1954 to T. Donald and Irene Post in Tyler, Minnesota. He was baptized on August 1,1954 at Hope Lutheran Church in Ruthton, Minnesota, and later confirmed his faith at Good Shepard Lutheran Church in Lake Wilson.

David spent his early years with his family on their farms near Pipestone and Woodstock. He attended school in Lake Wilson and graduated from Lake Wilson High School in 1972. As a young man, David learned the carpet cleaning business by working along side his father in the family business Steam Brite Carpet Cleaning.

After moving to Minneapolis, David worked as a security guard and in the pest control business. Over the years, his strong work ethic and entrepreneurial spirit enabled him to start his own carpet cleaning business. In later years he was employed as a delivery driver for Midwest Delivery.

David had a gentle spirit and a kind heart. He loved his family, his friends and most of all his pets. He enjoyed spending time playing Billiards, Frisbee golf, watching old western and sci-fi movies, and playing video games. Some of his favorite foods included spaghetti hamburger helper, Fisher Peanuts and biscuits and gravy. The latter he often enjoyed at Bumps with his Mom on Sunday mornings until her passing. David also had a fondness for classic cars, especially the 1965 Plymouth Fury, a car he owned more than once.

David passed away peacefully at his home in Mendota on November 11, 2025. He is survived by his siblings, Diane (Bill) Scheremet, Dale (Delma) , Kevin (Karen), and Bryan; stepchildren, Nathan and Brandon Billups; Aunt Lois and many nieces and nephews.

He is preceded in death by his parents, Donald and Irene; and brothers, Gregory and Bruce.

He will be deeply missed by special friend Lisa; long term friends Marty, Frank, Bob, Paul and their families; and many others who knew him.
