I remember the very first time I visited Bell Chapel, Fred greeted my family & I at the door with a handshake and a friendly smile telling us "WELCOME!!!" I remember being so taken back. It was the very first time anyone had ever welcomed me into a church! We engaged in a conversation and by the time we had sat down in a pew I had told Fred all about our lives. Who we were, where we were from, what we did for a living, etc. For awhile we attended church frequently and then life sort of got busy and we started making excuses not to go EVERY Sunday but...1 thing did not change. EVERY TIME we walked into that church and Fred Vogt was there, he welcomed us just as he did that very first time we set foot there. And now — as Fred enters the gates of heaven and is welcomed into the arms of Our Father, I know he will feel the same comfort and warmth that he so deserves. Hugs and prayers to his family. He made the world a better place and his memory will forever live in my heart.
