Eva L.
(White) Postell
Jan 15, 1945 — Jun 19, 2026
Roxbury
Mrs. Eva Postell was born on January 15, 1945. She attended Jeremiah E. Burke High School and later began a dedicated career at Raytheon. A hardworking and devoted mother, Eva always kept a second job to ensure she could provide the very best for her two sons, demonstrating the strength, determination, and selfless love that defined her life.
Eva was blessed to meet and marry the love of her life, the late Don Postell. Together, they shared a love that brought joy and happiness to those around them.
Eva had a vibrant spirit that could light up any room. She was outgoing, energetic, athletic, and simply a joy to be around. Known as the life of the party, she had a feisty personality, a wonderful sense of humor, and a love for dancing that kept everyone smiling. Family and friends will forever remember her favorite sayings, "Oh, shut up!" and "Cut the comedy!"—phrases that never failed to bring laughter to those who knew and loved her.
She also treasured the special bond she shared with her close circle of friends, affectionately known as "The Golden Girls." Their friendship brought her countless memories, laughter, and love throughout the years.
Eva was preceded in death by her beloved parents, Lawrence White, Sr. and Helen White; her loving husband, Don Postell; and her youngest sister, Marsha Horsley.
She leaves behind a legacy of love and cherished memories that will forever live in the hearts of her family. She is lovingly survived by her brothers, Lawrence White, Jr. (Barbara) and Ronald White (Jessie); her devoted sons, Burrell White (Beverly) and Paul White; her beloved granddaughter, Nikia Ramsey; her three treasured great-grandsons, Nashon, Sincere, and Ramsey Robinson; along with a host of nieces, nephews, extended family members, dear friends, and all whose lives were touched by her warmth and kindness.
Though our hearts are heavy with her passing, we rejoice in the memories she gave us and the love she so freely shared. Eva's laughter, strength, and beautiful spirit will remain with us always. She will be deeply loved, forever remembered, and profoundly missed.
