Larry E. Bruch, a devoted husband, father, grandfather, and friend, passed away peacefully at the age of 82 on August 12, 2025, in Danielsville, PA. Born on April 18, 1943, in Nazareth, PA, to the late Homer and Frances (McCrady) Bruch. Larry lived a life marked by hard work, dedication, and a love for his family and community.
As a lifelong truck driver, Larry devoted his career to the open road, contributing his talents to various transportation and trucking companies. He spent the latter part of his working years at Grand Central Landfill/Waste Management in Pen Argyl, retiring in 1999. Larry was also the owner and operator of Independent Trucking Co., where he took great pride in his work. His colleagues will remember him for his strong work ethic and warm camaraderie.
Larry's passion extended beyond driving; he was an active member of the Point Phillips Rod & Gun Club, where he cherished the camaraderie of fellow members and enjoyed the simple pleasures of life. He had a deep love for nature and valued the time spent outdoors.
Larry is survived by his beloved wife, Elinor Bruch of 63 years; his sons, Jeffery Bruch of Moore Township, Michael Bruch of Georgia; and his cherished grandson, Brandon Bruch, as well as nieces, nephews, and extended family members who will all miss him dearly. He was predeceased by his granddaughter, Trista Rose Bruch, and sister, James H. Bruch, Penny L. Garrison.
