Jeannine “Didi” Marie Vogl, 32, of Independence, Mo. passed away March 22, 2014 at her home after a courageous battle with cancer. Visitation will be held at Abundant Life Baptist Church in Lee’s Summit, Missouri on Thursday, March 27, 2014 from 9:30-11 am with Memorial Service immediately following.
Didi was born July 27, 1981 in Kansas City, Mo. She proudly served six years in the Army National Guard with one year deployment in Iraq. Didi was married to Gabe Vogl on December 11, 2010. After her son Jansen’s birth on May 9, 2012, as Didi said, she became a “full-time stay at home mommy and wife, and l love it!” Didi was diagnosed with ocular melanoma in February, 2013. However, she never considered herself a victim and utilized this as an opportunity to bring salvation to others through Christ. She had a lightning-quick wit and a spectacular sense of humor. Gabe always said he never won an argument with her.

I remember Didi from high school. It was a pleasure to know her. She will be missed.
Our hearts and prayers go out to all of you today! To Gabe and Jansen, Didi was a very special wife and mother that loved deeply and was loved by all those around her! What a privilege to have known her! She touched many hearts and lives in her short but fulfilling life!
Im her son i miss her i loved her so much that it was bad

I was “battle buddies” with Didi for a short time at Fort Leonard Wood, MO, while thr two of us were xray tech students. While our friendship was short, Didi had a profound impact on my life. I missed her greatly and spent 16 years trying to reconnect with her. I am heartbroken to hear of her loss. Especially so long after the fact. Rest well, Didi, you will be truly missed.
