Laurette C (Govel) Reagan

Rotterdam -It is with heavy hearts that the family of Laurette Reagan announces her passing on November 26, 2021. Mom made the journey to reunite with the love of her life, her beloved husband and soul mate Robert (Bob) Reagan who passed away in 2019 - they are now together in everlasting peace and love. She was born March 31, 1931 in Albany, New York to the late Martin and Anna (Kochan) Govel. She married Bob on June 1, 1952. They were happily married for 67 years prior to his passing. Mom enjoyed gathering with her family, cooking Sunday dinners, making peanut brittle and pizzelles. She enjoyed the time she spent at the Elks Lodge where she established many friendships and where she and dad would glide around the dance floor and laugh with friends for hours. Mom and dad always enjoyed taking a drive - especially trips to their children’s homes. Mom was happiest sitting with dad on their patio, watching the birds and enjoying the beautiful flowers that he planted for her.
