George Arthur Ruch
June 12, 1942 - January 25, 2022
George Arthur Ruch passed from his earthly constraints into his Heavenly home surrounded by his loving family on January 25, 2022. Born June 12, 1942 to the late Charles Arthur and Stella Fraley Ruch. Arthur was raised in the Broadview community and attended Bethel United Methodist Church. He was self-employed for many years in the building trades, worked for the Franklin County Highway Department, and then went back to school to get his teaching certificate, where he taught building trades and cabinet-making at Franklin County High School for several years. Arthur retired multiple times from various other positions, but the one he found in his later years was surely his favorite. He loved growing a garden and with Betty’s (and some of his grandchildren’s) assistance turned that into a profit-making venture and ran Ruch’s Produce for his last few years, retiring for good in August of 2021. Arthur is preceded in death by his parents, his sisters Mary Cates and Martha Starnes, and mother- and father-in-law law James Lewis and Zethel Short. He is survived by his loving and loyal spouse of 58 years Betty Short Ruch, his children Art and Stacie Ruch, Holly and Jeremy Davison, his grandchildren Shelby and Austin Ruch-Teegarden, Tad Ruch, Kassidy Davison and Cameron Hannah, Kross Davison, Kaydee Jae Davison, and a special grandchild in Heaven. He is also survived many cousins, nieces, and nephews. A celebration of Arthur’s life will be held Saturday, January 29, 2022 at Bethel United Methodist Church in Winchester, Tennessee at 3:00pm, with visitation beginning at 1:00pm.
