Hugh Thomas Blee

September 8, 1935 — May 28, 2023

Cannon Falls

Hugh Thomas Blee, 87, of Mantorville, passed away peacefully on May 28, 2023.
Hugh was born in Rochester, MN on September 8, 1935, to Michael and Martha Blee. He loved spending time in Wabasha and Kellogg with his many relatives. He raised his family and spent most of his life in Rochester and later built his retirement home in Mantorville with his partner Bonnie.

Hugh was legendary to all who knew him. He was an honest man who loved his family and loved the Lord. He was selfless - never hesitated to lend a helping hand to those in need and never expected anything in return. He impacted so many people with his kind and gentle spirit; he made friends everywhere he went. He loved playing cards, fishing, baseball, putzing at the farm, and spending time with his friends, family - especially his grandchildren.

Hugh proudly raised his three children Amy, Tom, and Joe with his wife, Jane. After they parted ways, Hugh met Bonnie Miller, and together they created a life of love, laughter, goofy fun, travel, and most important to both: time with family. Hugh loved Bonnie’s children and family and readily accepted them as his own.

Hugh will be deeply missed by his family and friends, but his memory will live on in their hearts forever. Hugh was preceded in death by his parents, Michael and Martha; his sister Nadine (Sis) Mewhortder, and her husband Dwayne Mewhortder; and his loving partner Bonnie Miller. He is survived by his brother Paul (Ronnie)(Mona) Blee, his three children Amy Blee, Tom (Katherine) Blee, and Joe (Kristi) Blee, his grandchildren Nick, Riley, Jack, Zack, Dylan, Ben, Olivia, Jenevieve, Greta, Maddock, and many other adopted grandchildren, family members and friends.

A funeral mass will be held at 11:00 a.m. on July 22, 2023, at St. Agnes Catholic Church, 125 W Glasgow Ave, Kellogg, MN 55945. A life celebration will follow at the VFW in Wabasha, 138 2nd Street E.
