Jeremy Carrington Obituary
There is no single great story about Jeremy Carrington, 34, a man universally known as Caz. Instead there are hundreds of them, left like glittering stones along his trail.
"He did not waste a moment of his life, and he enjoyed everything about it," said his wife, Patricia Rosch Carrington, trying to sum it all up.
While they were dating, he decided to pour his considerable energy into her family's backyard football game, and ended up breaking her father's nose. When he proposed to her last year, he roped her boss into the conspiracy and popped the question in the Sistine Chapel.
A British-born swaps trader for Cantor Fitzgerald, Mr. Carrington hosted a BBC program, "Manhattan on the Beach," in which he documented the daily activities of English people summering in the Hamptons. He charmed the conductor on his subway with the greeting, "Thank you, sir, for saving my seat."
One night in early September, he hailed a cab with a group of colleagues. When the driver refused to take all five of them, Mr. Carrington asked him to open the trunk so they could put their briefcases in it. The other four people settled into the cab. A few hundred yards up the street, the driver asked what that banging noise was, coming from the back.
"Oh, it's a Cazo," they answered. The driver pulled over, popped the trunk and discovered Mr. Carrington sitting cross- legged inside it, surrounded by the briefcases, waving his long arms and calling, "Helllooooo."
"A lot of people say that so many of these men and women were larger than life," Mrs. Carrington said. "I quite frankly think this man was larger than death."

Patricia,
As I stated in my post back in 2020 I never knew Caz but I remember briefly meeting you and his mom and taking his photo to the Ground Zero memorial for those lost and missing. I hope you and your loved ones are safe and well.

I purchased an American flag that was displayed in Hanover, Pa. along with others that dedicated to the lost of life on 9/11/01. Jeremy M. Carrington My daughter was a Young Marine in High School. Every year on this day her company displays flags with the names of all who parishad that day. And I display it every year in memory. Hope all is well. God bless.

I was a Red Cross Volunteer at Ground Zero in December, 2001. Your wife, Patricia and your mom called to me and another volunteer. I believe your mom had just arrived from England. They wanted to be escorted to a temporary memorial for those lost in the towers. We were not permitted to do that so they asked us to post your photograph with so many others at the memorial on the other side of the pit. I wish we could have done more. I think of you, Patricia and your mom on every 9/11. I hope they are safe and well and that they have learned to cope with the loss of losing you. Rest in peace.

I've just read the details of the British people that lost their lives in 911. I read about each person & noticed Caz already survived a bombing on WTC in 1993. I feel for his wife Pattie & his family.
RIP Jeremy Mark Carrington (Caz) x
RIP to all the British victims & their families x

I remembered Caz from Single in the Hamptons. He was such a delight, so full of life, and so real. He was the reason why I watched the program, and I felt so sad when I found out that he had died on 9/11. I think of him every year and hope that all is well with those he left behind. What a guy!

Just read his story and I had to comment. In July I visited the Memorial site for the first time and the first name I walked up to was " Jeremy Caz Carrington". I found this astonishing as my name is Adam Carrington. I pray he rests in peace and that his wife and family have found theirs in the 17 years since this horrific event. RIP Caz

Just back from visiting New York.Popped down to the 9/11 memorial and took a random photograph of a few of the names on the memorial plaque. This was one of the names and i googled him afterwards. It makes the whole event very real to somebody like me who lives in Ireland. Will now remember him at each anniversary.
September 11, 2016
I just loved Jeremy on Single in the Hamptons. I felt as if I knew him and he was family. I cried and cried and cried when he died at 9/11. I do think he was too awesome to die though. He lives on ! He IS in Heaven just a notch a way from us.

I was given Jeremy's name in remembrance during a 9/11 Ceremony at our school in Apple Valley, California. Reading his story from those that loved him caused me to hold my loved ones closer this day and to cherish life all the more. My condolences to his friends and family for their great loss! He is still remembered, even by those of us who never knew him.

To The Family,
It's been over 10 years but the pain of 9/11 lives on. I never had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Carrington but I would like to offer my deepest condolences to you in the loss of your loved one. May the Almighty provide you with divine comfort.
Sincerely,

I attended the Memorial the Suisun City, CA fire department held in commemoration of the 10 years since the 9/11 attacks - I didn't call it an anniversary as that implies a celebration.
Cards were available which contained the name of a victim, where they perished, a bit of their background and we were told we could find more info on line.
I picked a card with Jeremy M. Carringtons name on it.
So glad he was someone who loved life and grasped it with both hands (and tongue in cheek)!
Hope it helps to know that others mourned your loss today and you were not alone.
Bless you

For me you put a face on the tragedy and the victims of September 11th when I got to know you via The Hamptons series several years ago. As we pause to remember that day once again we think back to the great people our country lost that day and you were one of those with that unfortunate fate. I hope that you are basking in heaven in the face of sunshine with all things beautiful. Godspeed. For those of us left behind we will never forget those who left so abruptly and so unwillingly. I face tomorrow with a heavy heart remebering the evil of that day. But also with faith that goodness will prevail someday.
I hope your family will find comfort in this message that you will never be forgotten.

May the Lord be with you all that were directly affected by 9/11. My heart goes out to this world in which we live. Never could I have ever imagined anything like this happening, and our world would loose so many great people. I pray that this world changes, and changes for the better, for our future leaders, to fix all that we have created. God bless us all.

LIke others here I just watched the marathon of Single while editing wedding photos. As a photographer I of course responded to the lovely story of Daniel and Patti. I was devastated when the credits gave the news and inspired to find out about him. All these years later- my heart goes out to his wife, family, and friends. His humor and sweetness touched me today.

Patti,
I am sorry for the loss of Caz. . .I only know you and knew Caz from the show Single in the Hamptons.
I remember several years ago (probably 4) seeing the last episode and the the in memorium. It was late one night and I got on the internet and found this site.
I come here every year on 9/11.
I was fortunate that I didn't lose anyone I knew in 9/11. . .but whenever I hear of a victim, I think of them as if they had Caz's vim and vigor.
My thoughts are with you!

Dear Patti,
I know this is a guestbook for Caz, I want you to know that I read your book and it's a beatiful tribute for your husband, I will never forget 9/11 and with your book you'll help with that. It's make a big impression on me. My heart is with you about two days. I'll send you love and strength
with love Janneke ( I'm sorry for my bad englisch)

I watched"Single in the Hamptons" while living in Oceanside ca. It brought alot of delight to see someone like Jeremy hosting part of the show. I felt like we could be neighbors and friends. Of all the segments those with him were the best. His realness and love for his girlfriend/wife to be was great. My heart sank when I learned he had died in the towers. I was at work that morning and could'nt believe what I was seeing. My wife and I were truely saddened from his loss. All blessings to his family and wife.. With love.. Ed&Judi....

Caz
I still think about you often; after all this time. I will never forget my first night ever in New York , meeting you in Windows on the World - you blew me away with your sheer lust for life and your ability to order drinks for the whole room. I will never forget the great time we had over that week, you with your a-z list of bars and your playing cards that showed us what the city had to offer and me with my new bag from Bloomingdales! After we left , Maur and I talked about you endlessly. I still have the ' I love NY' T-shirt we bought you to say 'thanks for looking out for us' but never sent. When it happened , I somehow knew. I called , got cut off but knew you had gone. Again Maur and I talked of you endlessly. Isn't it funny how some people make a lasting impression on you. You were one of those people for me.

I only knew of Mr. Carrington, aka "Caz"(sp?) from the show "Single in the Hamptons". For some reason, whenever he was on he absolutely carried that particular episode/show. I especially loved when he fell in love and got engaged. Months later, I'm watching "Portraits of Grief" on TV and find out that Mr. Carrington was a victim of 9/11 and needless to say, I was crushed. I am so sorry for your loss.

Like every evening this summer I sat down to watch my latest "tivo'd" episodes of "Single In The Hamptons". Only to my shock did I see the "In Memory Of Jeremy Caz Carrington". It's now September 7th 2005 and it didn't click to me that he would of been involved in the 9/11 catastrophe. What a shame. I hope that friends and family are finding peace with each day that passes. My birthday is September 10th and I could of never imagined that after a family filled celebration to celebrate my special day (in 2001)...less than 24 hours later thousands lost there day to celebrate. I wish all of Jeremy's family and friends the best.
God Bless,

I ended up watching reruns of "Single in the Hamptons" tonight. Of all the people
in the program, Mr. Carrington came across as so genuine and his
personality shone through the lens
of the camera straight into this viewer's heart and soul. Thank you

generous light.

I heard Oprah Winfrey say that the people who died on 9/11 were angels chosen for this purpose (my approximation of her statement). Jeremy Carrington is one of these angels. Every victim is described as an angel if you hear from a loved one. I submitted an entry in July 2002 and I still feel as strongly about Mr. Carrington. I am watching a rerun of Single in the Hamptons. What a dear soul. You are an angel, Jeremy. Your loss inspires us all to live and love more fully. Bless you.

Not long ago I watched the last episode og the Hamptons tv show Caz was in. It was such a fun show to watch, but such a sad ending...I have been searching, since then, for a remebering site for him..and I finally found it. R.I.P. CaZ....
Laura Dodds

I was a faithful watcher of "Single in the Hamptons", I loved watching the exploits of Caz and his friends as they mingled with the Hampton "elite", one of the few real people amidst all those phonies. I can honestly say, though I did not know him personally, I was touched by his spirit and find comfort in it to this day. His happiness excuded from the television and washed over anyone that had tuned in. He was a charmer to be sure. The Lord blesses us with angels throughout our lives. Jeremy was just that, an angel. My thoughts and prayers go out to you Patti, as well as to the rest of Cazs' family and friends. His spirit lives on in you, and in all the fans that have taken him into their hearts.
Leann Young

I am among the many whose heart dropped at at the end of the show that showcased Jeremy and his wife getting married at city hall to realize in horror that he was among the victims of 9/11. There was an infectious quality about his personality that pulled me in as a viewer and made me laugh from watching him and his wife try to set up camp in the middle of the night with only the light from the headlights of their car to watching them at city hall getting their marriage lisence. I can't even begin to imagine to loss that his family and friends have experienced. But my prayer for you is that you have been able to find comfort in knowing how blessed you were to have had the kind of man he was in your life.
Sincerely,
Leann

Tears roll down my face as I write this. I didnt know Caz but had watched Manhattan on the Beach and really enjoyed his sense of humour. I loved the way he made his wife laugh. I remember thinking how much he loved her. Last night when the show ended and they put up Caz's picture with September 11th below it. I gasped it literally took my breath away. I was in shock that such a vibrant person was no longer with us. I've been thinking about him and Patti all night. My deepest sympathy goes out to Patti and all of Caz's family and friends.

We missed the show the first run, but we were enjoying catching up on the reruns. My breath caught in my throat when I saw Caz walking in front of the Trade Center, as I lost my father on 100th floor of Tower One. And then the tears wouldn't stop when I saw the tribute at the end. My prayers are with his beautiful wife and his family. We are all connected by this horror. God Bless and may Caz's never ending love for you keep you strong.

I saw the show last night which aired Caz and his wife. I felt a chill when I saw Caz in a clip with the World Trade Center in the background. The chill turned to dread when the show concluded and I saw the tribute in his memory...he seemed like such a wonderful person. My thoughts and sympathy go to his wife and extended family. He is gone but not forgotten.

I'm among the millions of viewers who first met "Caz" while watching
the "Hamptons" show on cable. My first thought of this charming man was his incredible wit, joy, and the friendship he extended to everyone he met. With a world filled with such violence and hatred, warmth and generousity flowed so freely from this man. I believe Caz lived and appreciated everyday of his life, every minute. My heart breaks to remember the charming scene when Caz walks to city hall to marry Patti-your time together was too short. Patti, may you read these loving tributes to your husband, and realize how much Caz's presence made this world a more interesting place to be in.

Hi Patti,
I was watching the Discovery special last night on TV when your face came on the screen so lovingly talking about your wonderful late husband. It has been many years since I've seen you but know that my heart and prayers are with you. Sadly so many in my town and the surrounding towns lost husbands, fathers, mothers, daughters. I'm just so sad that one of them was you. Sorry to send my condolences this way. I just didn't know how else to reach you. Take good care Patti, Cali Williams Yost

Patricia--
I am so sorry for your loss. I initially watched the Hamptons series when it was first released and liked to watch the re-runs in part due to Caz. He was so full of life, spirited, and witty. I could tell how much he adored and loved his fiancee and wife and he was the hit of the show. I didn't know until last night watching the Discovery Channel that his life was lost on 9/11. God bless you and your family.

Watching Single in the Hamptons was something I looked forward to each week. I could not believe it when the message flashed at the end of the show. I started crying and checked the website to see if he was on the list of victims. I felt a personal loss when I saw that it was true.
I am so happy to see that so many others were touched by his wit, outlook and spirit. I offer my condolences to his wife and family.

I only knew Caz for a short time, however he remains in my mind one of the friendliest, most caring and entertaining people i have ever had the pleasure of meeting. to this day, guys that met Caz only once- still ask about him because he made such a strong impression on them. He is missed greatly.

September 10, 2002
Dear Patricia; You do not know me, but I had the honor of crossing paths with Caz during his search for the soulmate he would eventually find in you.I was stunned when I found his name on the WTC victims list,but was buoyed knowing that this loveable generous man had fullfilled his desire to find a partner for life.I will never forget the hospitality he extended to me,a stranger in his beach home one thanksgiving, and innumerable bar tabs he would grab right out of your hand or silently already have paid. Our acquaintance waned after a year or so,but it seems like yesterday that I had bumped into him on montague street, greeted with his impish gregarious smile and a promise of a ring-up and a chat.Please know that the light your husbands life shined into the lives of so many will never dim or be extinguished. Tomorrow I will crack a heineken and shout his name from my window. The world is a lesser place in your absence Caz..we miss you.

First I must say that I am so sorry for your loss-not only to the family of Jeremy but especially his wife. Only last week my husband and I were watching "Single In the Hamptons"-having a laugh or two and thinking how happy and lucky were are to have found one another. I was touched by the photo they ran of Jeremy and his new bride. At the end when they ran "In loving memory of Jeremy Carrington" I looked at my husband and said that he must have been a victim of 9/11. It was only a guess but knowing he was a trader I feared I was right. I learned this weekend that unfortunately I was right. I weep for his wife. Being a newlywed myself my heart aches for his wife who had him for only a short time. I hope your times were happy-if what was shown on TV is accurate-I believe you were. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I AM SO SORRY FOR THE LOST OF THIS BEAUTIFUL LIFE. I HAVE WATCHED RERUNS OF SINGLE IN THE HAMPTONS ON CABLE, AND HAVE ENJOYED THE PERSONALITY AND WIT OF BOTH CAZ AND HIS WIFE. I AM TRULY SORRY THAT IT IS PEOPLE LIKE CAZ THAT WE HAVE LOST DUE TO THIS EVIL TRAGEDY. I CAN'T SAY WHY I BECAME SO FIXATED ON WATCHING CAZ, BUT I BECAME ENAMORED WITH CAZ ALONG WITH HIS BRITISH CHARM. I DIDN'T REALIZE UNTIL THE LAST EPISODE THAT CAZ WAS 1 OF THOUSANDS TO PERISH ON 9-11-01.
TO HIS WIFE, I PRAY THAT YOU ARE COMFORTED THROUGH-OUT YOUR LIFE FOR YOUR PERSONAL LOSS. I KNOW I CAN'T COMMUNICATE OR RELAY ANY WORDS THAT WILL MAKE IT BETTER, BUT I HOPE YOU ARE COMFORTED BY READING THIS.
GOD BLESS CAZ, HIS WIFE, AND HIS FAMILY AND FRIENDS.

as all people in the world I was affected by Sept 11th, But I never had a personal connection with the loss of someone close to me. Until this crazy show Manhattan on the Beach was on, and I met this fun spirited man with the same camping skills that I have. I have never met this man, I would problebly never meet this man, but the warmth he brought to my heart, and the way he cared about people was unheard of. I cried the day I saw the last episode, he will truely live on through the love he has should the entire world. I wish his wife, and family all my prayers and best of wishes, God Bless Caz!

Like so many others, I watched the marathon broadcast on Labor Day, and like so many others, was struck by the warmth, humor and dignity of Caz. I was taping the show to watch later with my fiance and actually told her that she had to see Caz, that he was the highlight of the show, and, again like so many others, wanted to be both your friends. We then watched the show together and got so much enjoyment and love of life from the small portrayal on the screen in our living room. Those brief moments that you two allowed us to share will forever change my life in small ways. Always associated with New York and 9-11 in my mind will be you and Caz, and the amazing energy, love and intelligence he brought to life.
We are so sorry for your loss. Take some small comfort in the joy you brought us last night, and the treat you had to know this man, even for such a short time. It must have been a treasure to be the focus of his love.
Wendy Donoho

Like so many entries I've read, my husband and I saw "Caz" and Paticia on the "Single in the Hamptons" series that aired Labor Day weekend. What a wonderful, down to earth and very "decent" person he seemed to be and amidst so much arrogance and superficiality at that. He completely charmed us.
He seemed to live life to the fullest, appreciate his success within limits, and know what was important in life....people, his fiancee/wife, and his friends. Best of all, he could laugh at himself. (The camping trip was hilarious) In short, he was REAL!!!!
It's ironic and tragic that the one person so many of us grew to like after just a few hours of watching him on television, would be the one we would find at the end of the show was lost to us on September 11th, another dark reminder of the toll it took. He will be greatly missed by many who never even met him. I'm sorry that I couldn't have said the same thing about anyone else on the show, with the exception of his wife.
We were grateful to see just a glimpse of a remarkable person and it's a tribute to him that he touched so many people with his gregarious manner and wit.
We could use a lot more "Caz's" in the world, instead, we lost the only one we had. It is indeed a great loss.
Our deepest sympathies to his wife, family and friends.

I, like so many others, came here to see if the memorial on the show meant what I feared it might. I love reality TV, for one reason, you get to meet people you would never have had the chance to. I think Jeremy must have been a wonderful person to know...I know that i loved the person i had the chance to meet so briefly through the Television screen. To his family and friends, I am sorry for your loss. I can't imagine! My prayers go out to you.

Like many people signing this guest book, I saw "Caz" on the Single in the City and Single in the Hamptons marathon. My fiancee and I watched him on screen, this happy, easy going, and terribly funny man, who obviously enjoyed his life and was very in love with his then fiancee. We actually cheered when he announced that he was engaged on the show, because we found him to be so fun and endearing, and deserving of all the happiness in the world.
I am terribly sorry that he was lost in the World Trade Center tragedy, for his wife and family.

I too watched the Labor Day Single in the Hamptons marathon on WE and found Caz to be most charming, witty and likeable and enjoyed his scenes and experiences the most. I caught a glimpse at the end of the series of the memorium line and a sickening feeling set in immediately. I remembered that he was a trader and felt compelled to search for his name on the WTC victims list. I am so sad to have found it. I wish to extend my deep condolances to his wife, family and friends on the loss of this wonderful man who was so full of life and laughter.

While watching the "Hamptons" marathon yesterday, I thought- I would love to hang out with this guy! He seemed like such a great person who loved life and had a lot of heart. He made me smile, and from reading the other comments on this site, he made many smile.
God bless.

I watched for many hours WE's marathon of "Single in the Hamptons" sickened when I saw the ending Memorian to him. Jeremy was my favorite person to follow in the series. He seemed such a genuine, fun, lifeloving guy who'd met his soulmate. My heart goes out to his family, friends and wife.

Caz Carrington - what an interesting, funny, and upbeat guy. The ending paying tribute to "Caz" Carrington was ironical and surprising. He was the only, true winner in Single in the Hamptons, by maintaining his candor and sincerity. Most of the others were just "spinning their wheels" in the struggle to be noticed, accepted, and loved..

I too just saw the 'Single in the Hamptons' marathon. I had seen this once before, bu this time--the dedication at the end shocked me. I was too afraid to go to the 9/11 memorial site and find that this was the way Caz had died. I'm truly sorry for his family's loss. He seemed to be a wonderful and sweet man. God bless you all.

I too just saw the ending of Single in the Hamptons and was shocked and saddened to see a memoriam at the end of the last episode. I am sorry that your life had to end in such a violent way. But you gave us viewers a great lesson throughout; which is to live, laugh and love. Thanks you for your wonderful gift.
From your greatest fans 'Caz' - we are sorry not to know you!

This entry is specifically for Patricia (or Patti). We are so incredibly sorry for your loss of 'Caz'. When viewing you on the t.v. show for the first time this evening we were absolutely enamoured by his flair, his wit, his unpretensiousness and obvious love for you. Scott and I, both fresh from Canada, - I with a British family, now both residing in Hoboken - both agreed we would make great friends of the both of you! And only wished we were parked beside you camping! We were going to send a fan letter to the both of you because we LOVED his truth and humbleness to his surroundings and how you were his greatest fan. Of course, we saw the credits at the end and it hit us so hard tears swelled and we were soon drawn to the website to learn as much as we could about this man. Patricia, we hope each day that passes is one full of sweet memories and offers you the strength to move forward. Although perfect strangers as we are you touched us - and "Caz's" heartfelt ways were so refreshing and sincere - we know why you'd fall in love with a man like him. This has personalized the tragic event for us and we won't forget him, nor you. The best to you - we will light a candle in tribute Sept. 11. And think of you when we choose to camp the Hampton's! All our love and heartfelt wishes on your journey in life, very sincerely Helene & Scott Taylor.

Like all the entries I just read, I "met" Caz Carrington watching "Single in the Hamptons", saw the credit at the end, and sickingly realized what probably happened.... came to the site, and... SO sorry~ Caz was the ONLY cool character in the series~ of all the people to lose~ I lost one friend, and one acquaintance who both worked for Cantor~ now I must add a 3rd. I cried.

I just watched the "Hamptons" Marathon and kept thinking that Caz was the only worthwhile man on the show. Then when I saw the memoriam at the end I went to the internet to see what might have happened to him. What a shock to see that he was one of the many who lost their lives on September 11th. Once again, this tragedy has a human face. . .one with whom I had so enjoyed spending Labor Day.

I'm just devastated to realize that Mr. Carrington lost his life along with so many other innocent human beings on 9/11. I "met" him viewing
Single in the Hamptons and just saw the In Memorium at the end of the series; with a sick feeling I checked the internet and it is with a heavy heart I send my condolences to his family and friends.

I had become such a fan of Single In The Hamptons, (especially watching Caz and his then fiancé) that I caught a few of the episodes a second time this summer. But I had failed to see the final credits before, and was eerily stricken with the feeling I imagine someone would have had on 9/11 if they had known and lost a friend. He was a marvelous person, and made me laugh out loud many times during those episodes.... I wept when I realized that he was one of those lost that day...it struck me all at once that no matter how small we think our lives are---what we have to give--our actions, humor, kindnesses, attitudes really do make an impact and connect with others in such unimaginable ways and at such a large scale...we are all connected. And that is why when a life like Caz's is extinguished, along with the thousands of other souls that day; the tragedy seems to me to expand to a size that cannot be measured by a mere human mind. I am not one to submit to these kinds of public venues, but Caz was an inspirational person, who, though was not my friend, I felt I had gotten to know and some how connected to. It seems particularly fitting that even his obituary (like the man) made me laugh out loud at some of his antics. I have said and will say prayers for his family and wife so that their pain might be eased.

IF I WILL DIE...
Do not stand at my grave and weep, I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am a thousand winds that blow, I am the diamond glint on snow.
I am the sunlight on ripped grain, I am the gentle autumn rain. When you awaken in the morning´s hush, I am the swift uplifting rush of quiet birds in cirkled flights.
I am the soft stars that shine at night.
Please do not stand at my grave and cry, I am not there,
I did not die....

Like so many, I just finished watching "Single in the Hamptons". Caz seemed to be a wonderful person, with a sense of humour one could only dream of having. May you Rest in Peace Caz.

I just finished watching "Single in the Hamptons" and thought Caz was so amazing and full of life. He made the show. I was surprised at the end to see "in memory of.." but knowing he was a trader I looked him up and was very saddened to see he was a victim of 9/11. Even without actually knowing Caz, I can tell he was a wonderful person who enjoyed everything life offered. My heart goes out to his wife and his family.
