Jermaine Faison

Jermaine Montea Faison of Tampa passed away on October 4, 2015, at the age of 32. Remembered by family and friends for his presence in their lives, Jermaine is survived by relatives who mourn a son and a family member taken far too soon.

Known within his community, Jermaine carried the steady dignity of someone rooted in family and city life. Those who knew him recall everyday kindnesses and the practical ways he showed care—through being present for relatives, keeping ties with friends, and taking part in the rhythms of life in Tampa.
