June 4, 1954 — June 13, 2022

Phillip Neil Dant, 68, of Maceo, passed away Monday, June 13, 2022, while under the care of Hospice of Western Kentucky. He was born June 4, 1954, in Owensboro, to the late Douglas and Benola Taylor Dant. Neil worked in maintenance for Anheuser-Busch in Jacksonville, Florida for 30+ years before retiring in 2015 and moving back to Maceo to the family's lake home. He also enjoyed hunting and fishing in his free time. Neil never served in the armed forces, but he very much loved his country and was a true patriot. He was very witty and always had a joke for you, and he loved his grandkids dearly along with spending time with them on Carpenters Lake.
