We Remember
On what would have been Ted’s 79th birthday, and a year and a half since Ted left us, I’d like to tell you one of the weirdest stories about Ted...
Thank you so many for coming here today at such short notice. I know you all loved Ted in one way or another...
Benaya- My First Memories of Ted
The first time I met Ted was in Amsterdam, we flew into Schiphol and were met first by Ted. he was much bigger than I ever imagined him and had the ability to carry all of our luggage with absolutely no problem. (Other than Ella’s suitcase – that somehow didn’t arrive)...
Memories are strange things. Just when you thought you had forgotten someone along comes a sound or song or image and that someone comes rushing back in. It’s only then that you really begin to miss their presence...
Dearest Helen,
I have a lot of fond memories of Ted, but I choose this one to remember and honor his good sense of humor...
Dear Ted:
After you were born to your parents, “They surely broke the mold.” You definitely were one of a kind. I loved all the stories you told me about your parents, the guy at the furniture store who told your parents to just get married and stop worrying about saving up enough money to buy the furniture, your special car that your Father bought for you and how all the girls loved that green convertible car...
Just seen your site about Ted Jarrold. I sang second bass with Ted in the Philharmonia Chorus from about 1972...
I only met him briefly, (April 2013) but as a fellow British citizen far from home, I was immediately drawn to his wonderful sense of humour and rich voice...

This is the picture of Uncle Ted holding the hand of my not even a year old daughter Gabi- a HD star from BBS video...
I never had the chance to meet Uncle Ted in person, but after teaching with HDEE for 7 years now and my English kids learning with Kangi and Uncle Ted...
We miss you Uncle Ted. You will always remain an important memory and we will think of you every time...
What a man! What a voice...
Farewell and forever farewell...
If we do meet again, why, we shall smile...
I am moved looking at these pictures. I will miss him...
Our deepest condolences to everyone at Head Office, to Helen Doron and to her family...
You must be receiving thousands of messages and condolences after the latest sad news and it is really hard to find the right words to express such deep feelings...
The news of Ted’s death shocked me. When I first met Ted a few years ago, I realized right away that I had met a very special man with a big heart and multifaceted and creative personality...
I am very sad to hear that Ted passed away...
I have a lovely etching by Ted Jarrold, which he gave me as a present during our time at Goldsmiths’ School of Art.
We received the message with great sorrow. He has always been perceived by us to be a very important member of the Helen Doron Family...
What sad, sad news! Ted was a lovely man, who always brought a smile to my face...
I am so sorry. He will be missed by all of the Helen Doron family around the world...
Dear Alisdair and Nike,
I was so sorry to learn of your father's death. I know that he had been ill for some time, but the suddenness of his passing must have been a great shock to both of you..
So sorry to hear about Ted...
I am very sad to learn this news, I met Ted 9 years ago in Rome and have always been impressed by his kindness and elegance disconnected from his size...
We are sad to hear of Ted's passing. It was a great pleasure to have known a kind man like him..
My heart is with you. As Anne wrote very nicely, I am one of those for whom Ted was an integral part of the company...
I'm so sorry to hear that. And I'm happy i had a chance to see him one more time in Vienna. Helen must be devastated, such a friend gone...
Uh, so sorry to hear... He surely will be missed, but he'll live in our hearts, as he touched them dearly...
We are devastated to hear such news. Ted was such an integral part of HD for us, his enthusiasm and love of was a major inspiration to us both...
Some of you have met Ted ‘Uncle Ted’ at one of our conferences and I feel that, he will be remembered by all of us as a very special person with a very warm heart...
I was very sorry when I heard about Ted Jarrold. He was such a nice and friendly man...
This is such a shock! He was one of the most generous people I've met. He gave so much of himself to everyone he met...
