Timothy Peter Vogt
March 23rd, 2018
Born August 25, 1957 in Flin Flon, Manitoba passed away peacefully in Strathmore, Alberta on March 23, 2018 after a lengthy illness. He leaves to mourn, his wife Angela, his soulmate, his daughter Stephanie (Tyler), his mother, Phyllis Rasmussen, his 3 brothers, Bob (Laya), Gary (Marion) and Greg (Rose).
Tim spent most of his life being an avid musician, playing bass guitar and saxophone. He was in a band in earlier years with Lone Star Cattle Company out of Penticton, BC. More recently, he worked for City Wide Towing out of Calgary, working their rover route on Crowchild Trail and Southland Transportation driving school bus in Wheatland County. He loved the children on his bus, who called him “Timbit”.
Over the years, he has worked with some amazing people across Canada and the U.S., lots of which were awesome musicians and singers and have remained friends still today. Tim had the ability to make friends with almost anyone. He will be sorely missed by all that knew him.
His family and some of his musician friends are going to try to arrange a celebration of Tim’s life, which will be held soon. Details to follow.
Tim’s family would like to express their heartfelt thanks to Dr. Kahlon for hus unwavering support. Also, many thanks to Nicole, Tim’ s home care nurse and the Palliative Care Team at the Strathmore Hospital, without their support our family could not have made it through such a difficult time.

Never a day goes by that you are not in my thoughts. I will never stop missing you. You left such an empty space in my life and I find it hard to be without you. I pray that you are no longer in pain and that the Lord has you safely in his arms. Your loving wife, Angela
