Rená Michele Voghel, 59, of Naples, Florida, passed away peacefully on November 16th, 2025, surrounded by friends and family who loved her deeply.
Rená was born on July 18th, 1966, in Waterbury, Connecticut to Gail Voghel and Roland Voghel. She spent her early years in Connecticut before her family moved to Ft. Lauderdale, and later to Key West, Florida. Over the years, after living in a handful of Florida cities, Rená found her heart's home in Naples.
Rená worked in the service industry for many years, where she became a local favorite among her regulars. Her charm, humor, and caring nature made everyone feel welcome and special — she had a gift for turning ordinary moments into lasting memories.
She was a friend to many, a woman impossible to forget — full of spirit, spunk, and heart. Though small in stature, she was mighty in presence and personality. Rená loved to talk and connect with people, always eager to share a story, a laugh, or a bit of wisdom she'd gathered along her journey.
Her truck was more than just transportation — it was her sense of freedom and adventure. With her nails done, hoop earrings in, and sunglasses on, Rená was always ready to roll, radiating confidence and that unmistakable flair that was all her own. A true animal lover, she cherished the dogs who shared her life and found her greatest joy in walks on the beach, discovering new places, and savoring life's simple, beautiful moments.
Rená is preceded in death by her parents, Gail and Roland Voghel. She is survived by her brother, Peter Voghel (Kevin, Chase); her cherished stepchildren, Kalin Batko (Nik) and Joe Perkl (Kim); and a wide circle of lifelong friends who were blessed to know her vibrant soul.
Rená's wisdom, strength, and energy will live on through all those who were lucky enough to share in her light. She lived fully and freely—with love, laughter, and a dash of tequila.
In lieu of flowers, please donate to the Patty Baker Humane Society.
A celebration of life will be announced at a later date. Please check back for more details soon.
