Paul Curtin

11 april 1954 - 4 december 2020

During his 17 years at the Prospect Park Tennis Center, Paul made an indelible impression on everyone who knew him, especially on the thousands of kids and adults that benefited from his tireless dedication to them and to the game of tennis. He treated the kids in the Junior Development Program as if they were his own, and he radiated sensitivity and kindness. He is survived by sisters Jane, Gail, Joy and girlfriend Mary. Prospect Park Alliance welcomes donations in honor of Paul Curtin and in recognition of his long contribution to developing youth tennis. 100% of all contributions will be put towards a scholarship fund that will provide subsidized access to youth programs for kids who would otherwise be unable to participate: https://donate.prospectpark.org/PaulCurtin

I was fortunate to get to know Paul before I joined the Alliance, as each of my kids enjoyed many years of summer camp at the center. Paul was always so positive and encouraging, and remembered each kids interests and abilities in a unique and personal way. Years later he would remember their names and ask about them, and would always relay that my boys could have been great players if they weren't interested in squash and other lesser pursuits! His manner was always so genuine and warm, and you felt as though you were the only one in the center when you had his attention. More recently, when I'd send out All staff emails at the Alliance, Paul would often reply directly, sometimes days later, with a witty comment or interesting anecdote that made me smile or marvel at his knowledge and self deprecating manner. Paul will be sorely missed by all, but I feel so fortunate to have had the chance to know and work alongside him these many years.
