Mickey Profumo, a beloved father, grandfather, brother, and friend, passed away peacefully on May 30, 2025, in Livermore, California. He was 82 years old.
Born on April 1, 1943, in Alameda, Mickey made his home and life in both Alameda and Livermore, where he built lasting friendships and cherished memories with his family. He spent his career as a proud Teamster with Local 70 in Oakland, where his hard work, reliability, and strong spirit earned him the respect of many.
Mickey had a deep love for life and a wide range of interests that brought joy not only to him, but to those around him. An avid outdoorsman and lifelong enthusiast of aviculture, hunting, fishing, and shooting sports, he also found peace and creativity in bonsai and horticulture. He loved restoring cars and riding dirt bikes—always happiest when his hands were busy and his heart was full.
Mickey was also a dedicated volunteer, especially proud of his time supporting Shoot for a Cure, where his passion met a greater purpose.
Above all, Mickey’s heart belonged to his family. He is survived by his three children and their spouses, Susie and Michael Kaczmarczyk, Michael S. and Jennifer Profumo, and Stephen J. Louis and Michelle Profumo; and his eight grandchildren, Kacey, Austin, Bailey, Emma, Hunter, Roxy, Nolan, and Avery, each of whom he made feel like they were his favorite.
He is preceded in death by loved ones who now welcome him home in peace.
A Celebration of Life will be held on June 29, 2025,12:30-3 p.m., at the Livermore Rod & Gun Club, 4000 Dagnino Road, Livermore, where friends and family will gather to share stories, laughter, and remembrance of a life well lived.
“I lift up my eyes to the mountains—where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth.”
— Psalms 121:1-2
Mickey will be deeply missed, fondly remembered, and forever loved.
