Teddy Edinjiklian, 76, born on April 6, 1949, in Yerevan, Armenia, passed away peacefully on October 4, 2025, surrounded by his loved ones. He resided in North Hollywood, California, at the time of his passing.
Teddy lived a life rich with kindness, curiosity, and art. He found beauty everywhere — in history, culture, and the smallest details of life. A true collector of stories and objects, his home was a museum of memories, filled with art, antiques, and relics from every corner of the world. Each piece had meaning, and each told a story.
His passions knew no bounds: paintings, sculpture, the Renaissance, Egyptology, religion, Christmas, nature, parrots, taxidermy, cowboys, and everything in between. Teddy lived to explore and to create. He was a children’s book illustrator, educated at the Institute in Moscow, and his work carried the same sense of wonder that defined his life.
He is survived by his lifelong partner, Manna, and his beloved son, Chris. His family extends heartfelt thanks to all who have shown love, care, and support during this time.
Teddy will be remembered for his generous spirit, his artistic eye, and his endless curiosity — a man who saw the world not just as it was, but as it could be.
