Obituary: Nadine Lanyon Rogel

September 14, 1931 – February 12, 2026 
Nadine Lanyon Rogel, 94, passed peacefully on February 12, 2026, surrounded by the deep love of her family.
Born on September 14, 1931, in Rahway, New Jersey, Nadine lived a life as colorful and spirited as her personality. To know her was to know energy. She was spunky, curious, and indomitable — truly indefatigable in the way she moved through life. Strong-willed and independent, she carried herself with class, confidence, and unmistakable style.
A natural entrepreneur with an artistic eye, Nadine owned and operated two beloved boutiques during her lifetime — a women’s clothing store in Florida and later Mums-To-Be, a maternity and newborn boutique in Edwards, Colorado. Her shops were more than businesses; they were extensions of her creativity, taste, and joyful spirit. She had an instinct for style and presentation and loved helping others feel beautiful and celebrated.
Above all, Nadine loved her family fiercely. She is survived by her son Stuart Rogel and his wife Bevan; her son Richard Rogel and his wife Susan; her daughter Rory Rogel; and her granddaughters Mollye Picket and her husband Matt; and Alexandra Martz and her husband, Brandon. She was endlessly proud of the generations she helped shape and looked forward with joy to welcoming her first great-grandchild.
Her family carries forward her resilience, her warmth, and her indomitable spirit. Together, they look forward to a celebration of her life later this year in her beloved Colorado.
