Blaze Fish Obituary
Blaze C. Fish, 67, passed away suddenly on Sunday, March 1, 2026 after a brief illness. Born August 28, 1958 in Newton, New Jersey; the son of the late Lee and Caroline (Valencis) Fish.
Blaze was an outdoorsman who enjoyed camping and fishing. He was a dedicated vegetable gardener who loved to indulge in BLTs with fresh lettuce and tomato from his garden. He enjoyed board games, checkers and playing cards with his mom. He loved animals. For a time, he was employed at a wild duck sanctuary and could always be counted on in a pinch to be a dog sitter.
Blaze was an avid New York Jets and Mets fan and he also loved watching black and white Westerns from the 1950s.
He was caring and thoughtful with a quick smile and a kind soul. He is already deeply missed.
He is survived by his brother Joe and his wife Pat of Unionville, his sister Hope of Plainville, his brother Mark of Canton, his brother Lee and his wife Lisa of Norfolk, his brother Bart and his wife Nancy of Burlington; as well as many nieces and nephews.
Burial will be held at the convenience of the family. Montano-Shea Funeral Home, 922 Main Street, Winsted has care of the arrangements. Visit an online guestbook at montano-shea.com.
