HAROLD B. DONDIS

I could not help but think of how Harold would have reacted to the newly circulated Chess Movie..."The Queens Opening...." and the wonderful insights that it provided to the chess player's mind and spirit. I think Harold would have been very pleased...by all the fuss being made about that movie and chess players....I still think , however, that Harold should be remembered for having the best legal mind ....in addition to his Chess fame.

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

As a New York attorney, I only spoke with Harold on limited ocasions. However, my brother Nick Kensington considered Harold one of his smartest law partners. Harold was the "go to" lawyer for the hardest and most difficult matters. Nick always said that Harold can figure this out. Harold can think this out., etc. Harold almost always did!Harold...

The dunham family sends our sympathy on loss of such a special man to his family and belmont.

Harold hired me as Rich May's first woman attorney in 1978. I will always remember him as a kind soul, who was brilliant and wonderfully eccentric, with a sly sense of humor! He was one in a million.

I worked with Harold Dondis at Rich May continuously beginning in 1981, after I graduated from law school, through the afternoon of the day he died. Harold was an exceptional friend, lawyer and legal mentor. I found many of his legal ideas truly visionary and, in the area of extending immediate possession concepts to interstate pipelines and federal court proceedings, I was fortunate enough to collaborate with Harold in making one of his visions come true. Harold Dondis will be truly missed...
