Andy Chase, 60, died inside the home and was legally blind.
His caretaker, a woman, tried to help the man get out of the home when the fire started. While she was trying to help Chase, her clothes caught on fire and she ran to the neighbors house to call 911.
Four fire departments responded to the call.
The fire started at around 2 a.m. on Friday. A firefighter also had to be transported to the hospital for chest pains, but he was ok.
Church Five Forks Volunteer Fire Department said that their thoughts and prayers go out to all involved in the fire.
Officials did not release any information on the cause of the fire.
