Donald William Vogle died Thursday, August 18, 2011 at Bannon Springs Ranch in Vernon, Apache County, Arizona following a lengthy battle with kidney cancer. He was 78 years old. Donald was born on December 22, 1932 in Blawnox, Allegheny County, Pennsylvania to the late William & Eva Vogle. He moved to Arizona 20 years ago and was an accomplished artist throughout his life. Most of the pieces he created are art-gallery worthy and truly are beautiful expressions of his imagination. He was a skilled pencil sketcher, pastel and chalk artist and loved designing and creating toys for neighborhood kids. Donald was preceded in death by his parents many years ago and is survived by his good friend, Kay Weaver of Overgaard, Arizona. Services will be private and the interment will take place at the Show Low Cemetery in Show Low, Arizona.
