Lowel R. Postier

Lowel Robert Postier, 68, of rural Inman, KS, peacefully passed away on Saturday, June 13, 2026, surrounded by family at Wesley Medical Center, Wichita. Lowel was a lifelong farmer.

He was born on October 2, 1957, the son of Lynn C. and Lenore (Stansel) Postier. Lowel graduated from Inman High School in 1975 and from Hutch Juco in 1977 where he lettered in track and was a decathlon athlete. He received his Bachelor of Science in Industrial Education from Fort Hays State University in 1982. On June 16, 1984, Lowel was united in marriage to Jacqulen Kay Hecker in Russell, KS.

Lowel is survived by his loving wife Jackie; children, Jesse Postier of Chicago, IL and Amanda Postier of Tempe, AZ; adopted children, Amy Billinger and Lori Elwonger; and many nieces, nephews, cousins, and friends.

He was preceded in death by his parents; brother, Loren Postier; and adopted son, Greg Postier.

A visitation and viewing will be held from 7:00 PM until 9:00 PM, Saturday, June 20, 2026, at Stockham Family Funeral Home. In keeping with Lowel’s down-to-earth nature, and being mindful of harvest season, Lowel would have preferred that everyone just climb off the tractor or combine and come as you are.

Memorial donations can be payable to the Cat House or McPherson Animal Shelter in care of Stockham Family Funeral Home, 205 North Chestnut, McPherson, KS 67460. 

Lowel didn't say much, but when when he did, it was worth listening to.
