Mr. Ted Eugene Causby, 72, of Valdese, passed away on Saturday, March 20, 2021 at his residence.

Ted was born on April 17, 1948 in Burke County to the late Robert D. Causby and Zula Gates Causby. He was a charter member of Solid Rock Baptist Church in Morganton, and was known by everyone as the longtime owner and operator of Causbys Service Center in Valdese. He always found a way to share his love for the Lord with anyone he met. His jokes and antics never went unnoticed, and he never missed an opportunity to help someone out or check out a good looking ride. His presence will be missed.

In addition to his parents, he was preceded in death by his wife, Norma Causby, and by four brothers; Billy, David, Jimmy and Kenneth Causby.

Survivors include his three children; Dwayne Causby and wife Donna of Rutherford College, Glenn Causby and fiancé Tonya Anderson of Valdese, and Erin Ball and husband Jared of Connelly Springs. Also surviving are three grandchildren; Lacey Causby, Cooper Ball and Hudson Ball, two sisters; Jo Ann Mills and husband Bob, and Linda Sue Wilson and husband Wesley, and a number of nieces and nephews.

Funeral services will be held on Wednesday, March 24, 2021 at Solid Rock Baptist Church at 5:00 P.M. with Rev. Tony Land and Rev. Stacey Lane officiating. Interment will follow in the church cemetery.

The family will receive friends on Wednesday, from 3:00 until 5:00 P.M. at Solid Rock Baptist Church in Morganton.

Memorials may be sent to Solid Rock Baptist Church, 2505 Burke Memorial Park Rd., Morganton, NC 28655.
