Blaze was a “jack of all trades” and a “master of quite a few”. A few of those trades included plumbing, diesel mechanic, oil field worker, rancher and farmer. 

Blaze was known for his kind heart, compassionate spirit and always looking out for the underdog. Out of everything, Blaze loved being a father. His family was always the most important to him, he was a much-loved Father, brother, son, Uncle and grandson.

Blaze was vibrant and caring and will always be remembered for his fun-loving spirit, boundless energy, and the warmest of hearts.
