Thomas G. Reagan, 71, of North Concord passed away peacefully with his sisters by his side on Monday, November 20, 2023 at NVRH after a courageous battle with cancer.

Tom was born in Concord, VT to the late Robert and Ernestine (Turner) Reagan on July 2, 1952. He was raised by his beloved grandparents, Ernest and Nellie Turner and attended St. Johnsbury Academy before making his career as a factory worker at Hitchner Manufacturing in Littleton NH.

Throughout his life, Tom had many hobbies and past times, including going to county fairs, 4-wheeling, attending antique car shows, cheering on the Raiders, enjoying concerts at Dog Mountain, listening to music, and reading. Adopting stray cats from shelters rather than buying kittens was an important value that Tom held, he wanted to give the unwanted a home.

The most important thing to Tom was his family and friends. He showed up for them, sacrificing time and himself to make sure they were taken care of.

Tom was predeceased by his parents, grandparents, and nephew.

He leaves behind his sisters, Lorri Ham and husband Clayton, and Cindi Hovey and husband Donald; one niece; one nephew; close friends Brian Beattie, Dave Hambley, and Donelle Dupuis; and his beloved feline friend, Everett.
