Obituary
Jim Causky unexpectedly passed away on March 29, 2019 at the age of 59. He is survived by his wife Caroline, and daughters Kelly and Allison. He is also survived by his sister Debi, and many other loved ones, including brothers-in-law, sisters-in-law, nieces, a nephew, and lifelong friends.
Jim was born on August 4, 1959 in Lakewood, California. He grew up in Rossmoor with friends he had for over 50 years. He excelled in sports, particularly baseball. He played as a boy, at Los Alamitos High School, and through college at Pepperdine University. He enjoyed success for over 30 years in aerospace sales, most recently self-employed with his wife at CauskyRandall Sales, Inc.
Jim made many, many friends all along the way.
But Jim was certainly not all work. He coached his daughters in softball, golfed, watched sports and horses, dined with friends and family, and vacationed. He proudly watched his daughters graduate from high school and from college. He supported them in all of their pursuits -playing softball, riding horses, travelling the globe, finding jobs, and everything else -and beamed when sharing their accomplishments.
Once empty nesters, Jim and Caroline sold their home in Mission Viejo and moved to Dana Point near the beach. Together they have enjoyed the ocean view, travelling, horses, and spending time with loved ones. Just recently they visited the Virgin Islands, Miami, Las Vegas, Canada, Kentucky, Bermuda, Del Mar, New Hampshire, Costa Rica, New York, Alaska, and Lake Tahoe.
Many, many loved ones mourn that Jim Causky left us too soon.

I was playing baseball in Syracuse NY sitting in the Bullpen down the LF line. I started feeling these peanuts hitting me. I thought well they will stop throwing these peanuts soon. But it kept going, then I here “number 36 your brutal”. I’m thinking what the heck is going on? More peanuts more comments. Finally I stand up and look around and it’s Jim Causky about 6 rows back over my left shoulders just laughing and laughing. Jimmy and Tom Beckerle completely out of blue are in Syracuse NY at my AAA International League game. What a pleasant surprise. Kind,Generous,Talented, He was the best of all.

Wow,
I am so deeply saddened about the news and loss of my little buddy.
He was so full of life and always would lift me up In our phone conversations.
In 1982 he and his parents took me in as a family member while attending Pepperdine and that will always be appreciated.
When I came out to the Celebration of life for Faye, Joe and his brother, it was like we never skipped a beat after almost 35+ years, that was the first time seeing him and all the family friends since our playing days. How I missed all the guys on the team, that help mold me into a better person. I remember that
He was running around greeting everyone who attended with the same love and compassion he showed daily.
I will always be grateful for knowing Jimmy he means a lot and will never be forgotten.
I know in my heart that for the rest of my life he will be looking over me.
God, rest his soul in heaven with his family and my parents in Heaven.
Love you lots my friend !!

I am shocked and deeply saddened by the news of Jimmy’s passing. Many prayers for peace and comfort for his family and close friends at this time. Such a huge loss. I met Jimmy over 30 years ago. His smile and personality were as big as his heart. He always had great pearls of wisdom for me, words I still live by today. I am a better person for knowing him. It is truly a great loss. Rest in Peace Jimmy. Gone too soon but never forgotten.
