Hernando - Jamin Darek Fleming, 42, previously of Memphis, passed away early Wednesday morning. He was a self-employed landscaping contractor. Jamin loved the outdoors: boating, camping, hunting, fishing, off-roading, as well as golf and baseball. He was happiest on the water, and loved nothing more than being on his boat surrounded by good friends, good food, and good tunes. He was a self-proclaimed grillmaster, and loved entertaining at his house. Jamin never met a stranger. He had a magnetic personality, and left a lasting impression on everyone he met. He loved life to the fullest, and all of his family and friends, while saddened by his loss, are overcome with joy for having known him and loved him. He is survived by his mother, Beverly Fleming of Olive Branch and two brothers, David (Kim) Fleming of Collierville and Jarred (Shannon) Pittman of Collierville, as well as other close family members and friends who all loved him dearly. He also leaves his two "four-legged kids", Cotton and Sonny. He was preceded in death by his beloved grandmother, Madge Brooks (NeeNee). Visitation is scheduled for 5 p.m., Thursday evening at Forest Hill Funeral Home East on Whitten Road (901-382-1000), with services to follow on Friday morning at 10 a.m. The family asks that in lieu of flowers, a donation be made in Jamin''s name to either St. Jude Children''s Research Hospital or the Wounded Warrior Project.
