Constantine J Prokop

Constant Joseph “Connie” Prokop, 91, of Brookline, Massachusetts, passed away peacefully on November 7, 2025, after a long and remarkable life defined by hard work, determination, laughter, and most of all, love. Born and raised in New York, Connie graduated from the United States Merchant Marine Academy at King’s Point and went on to earn his master’s degree from Hofstra University. He spent much of his professional life as an aeronautical engineer at Fairchild Republic, where his precision, creativity, and commitment to excellence earned deep respect. Later, he boldly reinvented himself as a successful real estate investor, approaching each new venture with the same steady confidence that guided his life. Connie was an avid reader and crossword aficionado who thrived on solving any puzzle placed in front of him. At the card table, he was both strategic and mischievous, a self-proclaimed card shark who loved finding a good blackjack table at the casino. He had a lifelong love of golf and was proud to have been the Senior Golf Champion at the Huntington Crescent Club, where he was a longtime member and fixture of the community. He also loved cheering for and being disappointed by the Mets with his grandsons! He was predeceased by his beloved wife, Dorothy “Dottie” Denton, with whom he shared 53 years of humor, devotion, travels, and a lifetime spent building a beautiful family. He was also predeceased by his sister, Valerie. He leaves behind his daughter Sondra and her husband Willie, his son Christopher and his husband Mark, and his five adored grandchildren—Will, AJ, Brady, Anna, and Sophia—who were the joy and light of his life. To them, he was never “Grandpa,” but simply Connie or G, a title much more fitting to all who knew him. Those who knew Connie will remember his sharp mind, quick wit, and boundless love for family. His life was long, full, and lived on his own terms. Visitation will be held at A.L. Jacobsen Funeral home at 1380 New York Avenue Huntington Station, 1380 New York, on Friday, November 14th 9:30am - 11:30am with burial to follow. A celebration of life for out-of-town friends and family will take place in the New Year in Massachusetts.
