Paul Picone Obituary

Obituary published on Legacy.com by Freeman Funeral Homes - Freehold on Mar. 10, 2026.
Paul Picone, 65, of Morganville, New Jersey, will be remembered for his creative mind, strong work ethic, and the life he built for his family. He was a devoted husband to Beth, a loving father to Jesse, Bonnie, and Richard, and a proud grandfather to Emmet.

Paul ran Picone Contracting alongside Beth and built Union Hill Gun Club, something he was incredibly proud of and built for his family to carry on. In 1998, he also built the family home in Morganville, creating a place filled with love, laughter, and lifelong memories.

Paul had an incredible ability to fix or build just about anything. He loved spending time in his machine shop, where he would build and craft whatever he could imagine. With every tool imaginable and a brilliant mind to match, he took great pride in working with his hands.

He also enjoyed shooting, The Three Stooges, listening to heavy metal music, and watching SpongeBob. Paul is also survived by his sister, Carol Hartwell, and nieces, Ariana and Alexandra. Paul's legacy lives on in the family he loved, the home he built, and the business he created for future generations.

Friends and family are invited to visit on Sunday, March 15, from 1:00 PM to 4:00 PM at Freeman Funeral Home, 47 East Main Street, Freehold. To leave a condolence or find directions, please visit www.freemanfuneralhomes.com.
