Alexandria was born in Grand Rapids on December 16th, 2011 at 4:26 pm weighing 4lbs 12oz. She was baptized that very day at approximately 4:29 pm. In her short time here she brought her family and friends immense joy and love. She enjoyed being sung to, hearing stories told by her Daddy, being wrapped in blankets made by her Momma, going to church, and getting up in the middle of the night. On December 21, 2011 she attended her first church service at St. Matthew Lutheran Church. She celebrated her one week birthday surrounded by family who continued to celebrate with her through Christmas. At midnight on New Year's Eve she was kissed by both of her parents; marking her life as one lived in two separate years. January 16th Alexandria greeted guests for her one month birthday with a gala event filled with family and friends who enjoyed cake and ice cream with her. Snuggling with her parents was her favorite activity, having never slept anywhere but in their arms her entire life. She will be greeted in Heaven by her brother, Matthew Douglas Vogt, who passed in 2006; and her paternal grandparents, Dr. James Robert and Shirley Robertson Vogt. Alexandria will be mourned on earth by her parents, Douglas and Kimberly who love her dearly; her brothers, Aden, Gabriel, and Ethan, all at home; maternal grandparents, Harry and Loretta Toner of Midland; maternal great grandmother, Goldie Toner of Midland; grandparents, Charles and Margaret Bash also of Midland; along with many uncles, aunts, cousins, and dear friends who survive her.

The family will receive friends Tuesday from 4:00 -7:00 PM at the funeral home and one hour prior to the service at the church.
