Notes:

Robert W. Kandt, 69, died Dec. 25, 2022 in the comfort of his home. He was born July 29, 1953 in Lockport, NY and graduated from Lockport Senior High School. He attended the University of Kentucky where he occasionally took classes and eventually graduated in 1983. Kandt was known for his love of the Buffalo Bills (Go Bills!), golf, baseball and most other sports (except definitely not soccer), witty headlines, appropriately placed curse words, beef on weck, and Top 40 hits of his time (inexplicably referred to as "oldies.") Kandt worked at 803 South, a local bar that was regrettably torn down to make room for the underpass on South Broadway. It was at this bar that he honed his musical trivia skills and met his wife. He went on to enjoy his work as Assistant Sports Editor and later as News Editor at the Lexington Herald-Leader, from which he retired in 2012. Kandt moved to Camarillo, CA in 2014, where he golfed as often as possible and volunteered at River Ridge Golf Club in his spare time. He returned to Lexington in 2017, enjoying the proximity of his children and grandchildren and continuing to golf as often as possible. He is survived by his wife of 38 years, Catherine Dixon Kandt, daughter Sara (Matt) Galyon, grandchildren Asher and Sky, son Ben (Taylor) Starling, siblings Barbara Kandt, Karen (Mark) Meyer, Susan Kandt, and Charles (LuAnn) Kandt, as well as several nieces, grand-nieces and grand-nephews, and many friends. He is preceded in death by his parents, Walter and Ruth Meier Kandt. Memorial contributions may be sent to the Woodford Humane Society.
