Jason R. Fleming, 44, of Pleasant Hill, Missouri, was born, March 20, 1976, in Springfield, Missouri, the son of James R. “J.R.” and Deana G. (Mitchem) Fleming.  He departed this life, Thursday, December 3, 2020, at the Research Medical Center, Kansas City due to Covid-19 complications.

Jason was a 1994 Lee’s Summit High School graduate.  He went on to earn his Associates degree at the Longview Community College.

On February 15, 2003, he was united in marriage to Jennifer Cartmill in Topeka, Kansas, and to this union two children, Brandon and Jeremy James were born; they later divorced but remained friends and focused on successfully co-parenting their sons.  On October 24, 2020 he was united in marriage to his high school sweet heart, Amie K.
