Isaiah "Iceman” Vicens

Isaiah Vicens, age 29, of Bridgeport, passed away on August 10, 2025, in Fairfield, Connecticut. Born on June 22, 1996, in Bridgeport. Isaiah was a lifelong resident whose vibrant energy and dedication left a lasting impact on all who knew him.

He was the beloved son of Orlando and Noemi Vicens, and the cherished grandson of Angel & Carmen J. Vicens and Felix & Fenilda Rodriguez. He also had many uncles, aunts and cousins that loved him  

Isaiah lived and breathed martial arts — it was not only his passion but his life’s calling. As an instructor, he shared his skill and discipline with many children and adults, guiding them to tournaments that became treasured experiences for his students and their families. His own achievements were remarkable: a multiple-time World Champion in Karate, a Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu 1st degree Black Belt, a 3rd Degree Black Belt in Shotokan, a 3rd Degree Black Belt in Goju-Ryu Karate and a Black Belt in Taekwondo.

Outside of the dojo, Isaiah enjoyed trips with friends and loved ones, lifting weights, and training for the competitions he always had in sight. He was a huge MMA/boxing fan that enjoyed going out to see the PPV fights with the team. He loved the Patriots and Tom Brady was his GOAT. His determination, discipline and generous spirit will remain an inspiration to all who knew him.

Family and friends are invited to attend a Memorial Service on Friday, August 15, 2025, from 6:00 to 8:00 PM at Funeraria Luz de Paz, 426 E. Washington Avenue, Bridgeport, CT. Final disposition will be held privately at the convenience of the family.

Isaiah’s legacy will live on through the countless students he inspired, the championships he earned and the love he shared with his family and community. Forever ICEMAN.
