In Loving Memory of Merrell W. McNair-66 Beloved Son, Father, Brother, Uncle and Friend. On Wednesday, October 7th, 2020 Merrell unexpectedly passed away at Peekskill hospital due to heart complications. Born April 2, 1954 in Peekskill NY, where he grew up creating friendships and long lasting personal connections. He was the son of Dessie Weston and the late Wilson McNair. Merrell is survived by his children, daughter Shannon McNair, his three sons, Shawn McNair, Christopher McNair and Korey McNair, his stepdaughters Shantel and Nicole Amodei as well as his 11 grandchildren. Merrell was known for his love of many things from fishing, boating, jujitsu, basketball, painting and drawing and most importantly his love and collection of classic vinyl music. If you had the pleasure of knowing Merrell, you know he had a caring heart and thoughtful presence was easy going and connected with people wherever he went. We all cherish the time we were given with him and Merrell will be dearly missed but his memory will live on forever.
