- Louis Edward Vogel
Louis was born in 1930 on the family farm at Chariton, Iowa. His mother Anna surely must have wanted a girl, but instead she received her 6th son. Four years later, his father Jacob suddenly died and the family moved, initially to a house on U.S. 92 east of Sigourney and later to a house on Anna's brother Zeno's farm, south of Harper. Here he attented a one room school near their home, though the 6th grade, finishing the last two years of elementary school at the St Peter & Paul Catholic school in the Clearcreek community.
In 1940, Anna and her two boys moved to Sigourney, where Louis began high school graduating in 1948. Here, Louis' extra curricular activities, football, track and chorus, interested him more than academics. Notable also during this period was his work selling Fuller Brushes, with assistance and encouragement from brother Jim. This continued after high school when Louis spent a year in California, working under brother Ralph. After this, he returned to Iowa and entered St Ambrose college in Davenport.
College was interrupted a year and half later when Louis enlisted in the U.S. Navy. Here he discovered the world of electronics and learned much about life beyond his country upbringing. Returning to St Ambrose four years later, with renewed enthusiasm toward school and a career path, he now pursued a degree in physics and mathematics. It was at this time also that he met his life long partner, Marianne Sieren who was studying nursing at St Ambrose. They were married when Louis graduated in 1957, after which they moved to Notre Dame, where Louis pursued a MS degree and their first two children were born.
Finally finished with school, Louis and family moved to St Paul, Mn where he began a 24 year career with the Univac division of Sperry Corp, first on missile defense programs for the US Navy programs and later on air traffic control programs for the FAA. Here also the last four of their six children were born.
In 1980, the family moved to Clearwater Fl, when Louis transferred to the Sperry division located there, now working as a radar systems engineer for missile guidance. Five years later, he left Sperry and took a job in Orlando working for Martin Lockheed, also in missile guidance, where he stayed until his retirement in 1994.
Louis and Marianne subsequently moved to Atlanta, where their three daughters, Susan, Rita and Lisa, and families also live.

Vern Vogel Jim Vogel Lewis Vogel Ralph Vogel
Three field managers and a dealer, all in one family, is the proud boast of the Vogel brothers, and an unusual one as Fuller family stories go. Ralph, one of the top men in Western District, is the leading field manager in Sacramento, California, Jim and Vern are field managers and doing right well in Dubuque, Iowa and Des Mines, Iowa, respectively. Lewis, the youngest brother, sold $6184 in seven periods this year with high periods of $1250 and $1001, in Sacramento.
Ralph, you will recall, authored the recent Brush-Off article on the use of the Catalog to increase sales.
