James Dauksch Obituary

Dauksch, III, James Jimpassed away on April 14, 2014. Jim was born on January 23, 1969 in Orlando, Florida. Bearing his father's name, Jim was the third child and only son of Jay and Sylvia Dauksch. Jim was raised and educated in Central Florida. He was a graduate of Seabreeze High School, University of Central School, and Stetson Law School. Jim began his legal profession as a prosecutor in the Office of the State Attorney in Volusia County. Discovering his heart was in finding the good in others, defending their rights, and giving them hope for their future, he opened a criminal defense law practice representing his clients with a great balance of professionalism and sympathy until his passing. Jim grew up loving the water and spent his teenage years lifeguarding and surfing in Daytona Beach. He enjoyed a very active life, running marathons, cycling, surfing, and traveling, but he found his greatest joy in his children. Jim lived his life knowing God was in control and had a plan/purpose for him. That purpose was to be a protector, provider, counselor and friend to his children. Jace, Annie, and Zoe were the light of his life and his true passion. For them, the depth of his love could not be measured. Jim is survived by his parents, James C. Dauksch, Jr. and Sylvia Dauksch (Paul Klump); sisters, Deniece Webb (Win) and Christina Hall (Scott); his three children, James Carlton Dauksch IV, Annie True, and Zoe Kae; and many nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and cousins. We will continue to seek comfort in Jim's favorite verse: " For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11. Jim fulfilled his purpose on earth and is now following a more glorious path with our Father in heaven. Jim was a loving father, caring son, wonderful brother, and a great friend. He will always be remembered and forever missed. A memorial service to celebrate Jim's life will be held on Saturday, April 26, 2014, 10:00 am at First Baptist Church of Orlando, Henry Chapel, 3000 South John Young Parkway, Orlando, Florida 32805. In lieu of flowers, donations may be made to Grace Orlando, 2828 Edgewater Drive, Suite 200, Orlando, Florida 32804 or to the charity of your choice in memory of Jim.

We were so saddened to hear of Jim's passing. He was a close friend with our son Jonas and family and we talked with him at many neighborhood parties and in our store where he was a customer. What a warm and friendly presence he possessed. He also offered his assistance at a professional level several times for which we're were thankful. We will miss his smiling face. May God bless and watch over his family.

I was so shocked and saddened to learn of Jim's passing. As a VCSO deputy sheriff I met him years ago when he started with the State Attorney's Office in Volusia County. He was a great guy and showed a real love and passion for his work. As a Court Clerk my wife also knew Jim well and liked him very much. Our sincere prayers and sympathies go out to his family during this difficult time.

Respectfully submitted,
