Blue Jays star Braydon Fisher's father, Normand Fisher, dies during the team's California road trip at 65

Toronto Blue Jays reliever Braydon Fisher’s father, Normand Fisher, died at 65 during the team’s road trip to California on Monday.

The Blue Jays were playing the San Francisco Giants, and Norm Fisher, who grew up in Vanden, California, was visiting friends from his high school before the game. After the visit, as Norm was heading back into the city, he suffered a stroke.

Braydon Fisher, who has been on the bereavement list since his father’s death, spoke glowingly of his "amazing" dad on Wednesday.

"He was an amazing person," Fisher said, via MLB.com. "I’ve heard you say this about myself, and he always loved when you all said this, but there was never a bad day for Norm. His name was Norm. There was never a bad day for him."

"He was always happy, cheerful and willing to help anybody. He loved people. He did everything as perfectly as you could. He was very proud of what he had."

Norm was an officer in the Air Force for eight years. Braydon is in his second season with the Blue Jays and said his father was an ardent supporter of both his son and the team.

"He played baseball and he loved baseball. Growing up, if it had a score, it was on the TV. He loved watching it and he loves all the guys. I don’t think that for the last two years, you’d see him not wearing Blue Jays gear. Not ever. No matter the occasion."

"He always supported me in every single way," Fisher said. "He did everything he could to make sure I achieved the dream I’d talked about since I was five."

Braydon, 25, said that while his father played baseball, his mother said the Blue Jays reliever got his athletic ability from her.

"He liked to talk about being a good baseball player," Fisher said with a smile. "I always gave him (a hard time) for that. My mom always tells him that I got my athletic ability from her."

Braydon thanked the Blue Jays for their supporting not just him but his family as well.

"I just want to thank the whole Blue Jays staff for how amazing they’ve been supporting me and my family," Fisher said. "Getting flights, hotels, giving me as much time as I needed and all of the nice messages."

Fisher is expected to be activated from the bereavement list during the team’s series against the San Diego Padres. He made his MLB debut last season and has quickly become a trusted member of the Blue Jays’ bullpen.

Last season, Fisher went 7-0 with a 2.70 ERA over 52 games, striking out 62 hitters in 50 innings. This season, he has continued to be a stabilizing presence for manager John Schneider. In 43 games, he is 3-3 with a 3.33 ERA over 43 games, while striking out 46 hitters in 46 innings.
