about

Jim Fish (1949-2017) We announce the sudden passing of Jimmy (Jim) David Fish on June 5, 2017 while hiking on the Ignacio Chavez Mesa in New Mexico. Despite exceptional health, an unforeseen condition led to his collapse with no response to CPR.

Born in San Angelo, TX on June 2, 1949, Jim grew up on a ranch in west Texas, cherished and spirited partner to Cathy Young.

Jim attended school in Sonora, TX where he graduated valedictorian in 1967 and proudly played on the 1966 state championship football team. He went on to Rice University (B.A. & M. Chem. Eng.), Princeton (PhD Chem. Eng.) with Post Doc studies in Mexico City. Jim pursued a career in energy research at Sandia National Laboratories in California and later, New Mexico, before founding the Anasazi Fields Winery in Placitas with friends.

A man of many interests, and great humor, Jim was inspired by nature all his life, which is evident in his published poetry, his sculptures and photography. He was a strong environmentalist and not timid in standing up for his beliefs. The outdoors was a second home to Jim and he was an accomplished hiker, skier, birder, hunter, and photographer. Everything interested him and his love of creating good wine was paired with his interest in food and he was an excellent cook, both at home and on the trail.
