Ralph Burch of Corinth passed away peacefully on Saturday, October 18, 2025, at Medical City Denton. He was born in Denton, Texas, on September 20, 1936, to J.C. and Maxine Burch.

Ralph graduated from Denton High School and attended North Texas State University. He worked with his family at the original Ju-cy Pig Stand in Denton in his younger years. He had a lifelong love for anything with a motor — from R/C planes and cars to boats and beyond. His playful spirit and enthusiasm for his hobbies made him a big kid at heart throughout his life.

In May 1966, Ralph married his sweetheart, Patsy Davis. Together they built a loving home and raised their children with devotion and joy.

Ralph was preceded in death by his beloved wife, Patsy. He is survived by his son, Randy Burch and his wife, Anna, of Houston; his son, Ralph Burch Jr. and his wife, Beth, of Cape Coral, Florida; and his daughter, Tina Miller and her husband, Tommy, of Corinth.

A graveside service will be held at 10:00 a.m. on Thursday, October 23, at Roselawn Memorial Park in Denton.

Ralph will be deeply missed by his family and friends. His orneriness, laughter, kindness, and love for life will remain in our hearts forever.
