Dan Honeycutt Obituary
June 7, 1933 - October 6, 2020
Angier
Dan Hugh Honeycutt, 87, of Angier passed away Tuesday. A native of Harnett County, he was the son of the late Hughie D. Honeycutt and Rena G. Honeycutt.
Graveside services will be held this Friday at 11:00 AM at Lakeside Memorial Gardens, Angier. The family will briefly receive friends following the service at the cemetery. Although the family will not be present, Mr. Honeycutt will lie in state from 1:00 PM to 5:00 PM Thursday at Bryan-Lee Funeral Home, Angier.
Dan was an avid farmer and earned the Outstanding Young Farmer award. His love of farming, owning tobacco warehouses, serving the farmers was what he enjoyed. He served his community as a member of the Angier Masonic Lodge and as a board member of First Bank. His love for his family, especially his granddaughters, could be seen in his smile when he often spoke of them. You could always find Dan ready to entertain you with a story and a smile at his shop on Rawls Church Road.
Dan is survived by his daughter, Shelby H. Collins and husband Brian of Angier; his son, Danny Honeycutt and wife Glenda of Angier; grandchildren, Danna Wilson, Bailey and Brooke Honeycutt, John and Bridgett Ferrone; great-granddaughter, Lilie Ferrone; sisters, Reecie Surles and Glenda Honeycutt Padgett; brother, Ted Honeycutt.

I happened to search for Dan online because I felt I should give him another $20 for letting us fish in the pond.
I look for him when farm equipment is rolling. But I have not seen him in so long.
I am saddened by learning of his passing a year ago.
To the family, Tom and I drive red and black Subarus respectively. We are catch and release fishermen that are grateful for being allowed to fish in the pond. It has been a godsend in these months of isolation.
