Dr. Eugene (Gene) Martin Busch, 67, of Lake Bowen, Inman, SC, passed away at his home on Saturday, April 30, 2005, after a courageous battle with cancer.
Born February 1, 1938, in Waterbury, Connecticut, Dr. Busch was the son of Alfred David Busch (1901–1978) and Gertrude E. Somerville Busch (1904–1968); beloved husband of Jean Wynonia Wilds Busch (1939–2022).
Dr. Busch was well known, respected and admired as a physician; graduated from Hagerstown (MD) High School in 1955, Franklin and Marshall College in Lancaster, PA, in 1959, and the University of Maryland School of Medicine in Baltimore.
Dr. Busch was a Commander in the U.S. Navy, from 1965-1967, stationed at the U.S. Naval Hospital in Charleston, SC.
Following his military service, Dr. Busch came to Spartanburg to resume his civilian medical career with Hamilton & Busch PA, which eventually became Piedmont Internal Medicine, from which he retired in 1996. He was a member of the American Medical Association and the Spartanburg County Medical Society.
Always eager to try new things, Dr. Busch and his wife, Jean, took up square dancing after his retirement; they were members of the See Saw Squares, of which he served as president.
Survivors include sons, Steven A. Busch and Eric T. Busch; stepdaughter, Tonya L. McElrath; step-grandson, Devin Cantrell; very special sister-in-law, Marlene Wilds; and special friends, Cris and Linda Crissinger.
Also predeceased by a stepdaughter, Terrie M. Cantrell.
Burial was in Roselawn Memorial Gardens.
