Heinrich “Henry” Vogt age 76 of Wayne passed away on Thursday, January 05, 2012

age 76 of Wayne passed away on Thursday, January 05, 2012 at the Chilton Memorial Hospital, Pequannock.

He was born in Kries Sharky, Lithuania and lived and was educated in Germany before emigrating to the United States in 1952. He settled in Paterson, NJ and worked at several jobs before getting a permanent position with the Continental Can Corporation. He worked for Continental Can in Paterson and later at their Wayne location. Henry then relocated to Wayne, married and started a family. Once Continental Can closed its doors he found employment with the Aerobics Corporation in Little Falls where he helped manufacture treadmills before retiring in 1995.

Henry enjoyed photography, woodworking, and could fix just about anything. He was always there to help family, friends, and neighbors with just about any project they needed help with. He had a quiet, friendly personality, and a good sense of humor.

He was a long time parishioner of Our Lady of Consolation RC Church, Wayne.

Henry met his wife Theresa (Szwed) Vogt through friends and their first date consisted of a dinner and tour around their hometowns. He asked Theresa to marry him at her home in Wallington and on September 20, 1970 they were married at the Sacred Heart of Jesus RC Church in Wallington. They honeymooned in Miami Beach and have enjoyed forty-two years of a loving and devoted marriage.

Henry was the loving husband of Theresa (Szwed) Vogt; devoted father of Ryan Vogt of Wayne and Matthew Vogt and his wife Aurelie of Gaithersburg, MD; loved brother of Adele Kaleda of Florida, Gustav Vogt of Wayne and the late Joseph Vogt(2010).
