Timothy John Vogel, 77, of Six Lakes, Michigan, passed away peacefully at his home on Tuesday, July 2, 2024. Born on July 29, 1946, in Alma, MI, Tim was a man of humble beginnings who grew to become a successful business owner and proud Vietnam Veteran. Tim was a graduate of Saint Louis High School, graduating with the class of 1964. His kindness, generous spirit, and hard work ethic will be remembered by all that had the honor of knowing him.
Tim was an adventurous soul whose passions lay in the great outdoors. He found immense joy in hunting, fishing, and camping with friends and family. His humble demeanor and generous spirit shone through in all his interactions and endeared him to all who met him. He was a dedicated businessman who, for over 20 years, owned and operated the Six Lakes Tavern. His love for his work was evident in the warm, welcoming atmosphere he created, which became a popular gathering spot for locals and visitors alike.
Tim is survived by his sister Pamelia Everdeen and her husband Rodger; their children Tammy (Steve) Sowles, Daniel (Bonnie) Everdeen, and Bob (Giovonna) Everdeen; and special friend, Amy Moran. Great nieces and nephews; Allison (Travis Williamson) Everdeen, Jack (Madison) Everdeen, Shaina (Collin) Costello, Alan Everdeen, Alex Everdeen, Tyler Everdeen and Gage Everdeen. Time also had four Great Great nieces and nephews. He was preceded in death by his parents, John and Clio Vogel, and great nephew, Spencer Sowles.
The legacy of Tim's generous spirit, humble heart, and adventurous life will live on through his loved ones.

Tim and I grew up together in St. Louis, Michigan; he lived around the corner on Center St. and I lived on Bankson St. As youngsters, we played two man tackle football on the vacant lot next door. We would kick extra points over the power lines on Bankston. I still remember the ping pong ball guns fights at his house; fun boy stuff. As adults, we went our separate ways, but we always had a good time reminiscing about the old days at our high school reunions. God bless, Tim.

You can fish with a 5 gallon empty milk jug... Went fishing on Penny LK, he tied a line, hook and minnow to it and tossed it into the water. Minutes later, a pike hit it and we chased that jug around the lake.. LOL

My first memory of Tim was at the Greenville adult singles dance. Years ago he gave me a beautiful Christmas candle. And he was a trusted board member as our treasure.We connected, became fishing, buddies and gambled once in a while. I will always hold this sweetheart of a man, dear to my heart.
