Paul was one of the most unique and genuine souls that I have ever encountered. I spent most of my childhood and young adult life with Paul as either my tennis instructor, boss, or friend. From his unparalleled knowledge of music history to tennis groundstrokes and overheads, Paul was always a joy to interact with and his enthusiasm for life and tennis was always infectious. Another amazing thing about Paul was that he would always inquire about my family and their health with an authenticity and genuineness that I have seldom seen in my life. Speaking of family, he always treated his work colleagues, staff, and tennis pupils like family, earning him the respect and love of everyone who encountered him.
I am going to miss Paul greatly, but I take solace in the fact that his impact and legacy in Brooklyn will last forever throughout the hallowed grounds of the Prospect Park Tennis Center and with the countless lives that he improved during his time at the PPTC.
