Elias “Doug” Ruschak, 95, a longtime resident of Taylor, Pennsylvania, passed away peacefully after spending the last 13 years of his life in Port Orange, Florida.
Born in Taylor, he was the son of the late Elias and Sarah (Kuzman) Ruschak. Doug was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Rachel (Winters) Ruschak; his daughter, Barbara; his grandson, James “Jamie” Kowalcik; and his sisters, Sally Savitsky, Annie Shepard, and Helen Benson.

Following his military service, he worked for many years at Preferred Meals in Moosic, Pennsylvania, until his retirement, and worked part-time as a butcher at Engelmyer’s Market in Taylor.
He was a devoted Pittsburgh Steelers, and Scranton Eagles fan and enjoyed spending time fishing, attending Scranton Apollos basketball games. Doug will be remembered for his steady presence, his love of family, and the simple joys he found in life.
