February 20, 1954 — September 3, 2013

Dana E. Meeson, 59 passed on Tuesday, September 3, 2013 at the Jackson Madison County General Hospital.
He was born in Stillwater, Minnesota on February 20, 1954, the son of the late Philip Edward and Nona Peterson Meeson. He spent much of his younger years growing up in Florida and was a fan of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. He owned and operated D & L Distributors, a wholesale distributor of Hunt Brothers Pizza Company, in Jackson. He was a communicant of St. Mary’s Catholic Church, where he was a member of the Knights of Columbus and started the middle school football program in 2007 and still continues today. His passions for helping children and for sports are what encouraged his coaching both football and baseball for over twenty-five years with the Madison County Youth Leagues. He loved all types of music and was an avid Fleetwood Mac fan for many years. He loved his family and took great pride in his daughters and their many accomplishments.
