McCann II, Paul, Red Bank

463

Paul David McCann II passed away Oct. 28 in Red Bank. He graduated from Middletown Township High School and went on to get certified in electronics. 1993 marked the beginning of his career at TDK-Lambda Americas Inc. as a coil winder that ended in 2015 when Paul retired as an electronics assembler.

Paul was also an accomplished guitarist and guitar instructor who participated in multiple heavy metal bands in the ‘80s and ‘90s and played local venues, and shared his gift with his students.

Paul lived in Middletown with his mother, Muriel McCann, who survives him along with his sister, Sharon Carmin Karasic. A son, a brother and an uncle, Paul will be remembered as a friend to all he met, and a gentle and caring soul who could smoke the frets off his Fender.

Visitation was held Nov. 3 with a service at Thompson Memorial Home in Red Bank. Burial was private.
