George Allen Scarborough, 90 years young of Elkton, MD, went “home” to God on Friday, March 13, 2015 while in Calvert Manor Healthcare Center, Rising Sun, MD.
George was born on January 22, 1925, son of the late Clarence and Elsie (Cameron) Scarborough. He was one of 8 children. (Samuel, Andrew, Milton, Robert, David, Eva and Mary Grace) George grew up in Cecil County and after 33 years of dedicated service, retired from the Perry Point V.A. Medical Center as a Water Treatment Plant Operator. George spent his retirement years enjoying crabbing, fishing, playing cards, drinking coffee with his “buddies”, growing tomatoes, watching NASCAR (especially his favorite driver Jimmie Johnson) and spending time with his beloved family.
George is survived by his greatest love, his “sweetie pie” of 63 years, Louise Mae (Wall) Scarborough and five children: Kathy A. Kiser of Elkton, MD, Debbie S. Cycyk (Steve) of Elkton, MD, Brenda L. Pettitt (Rob) of Elkton, MD, Mark A. Scarborough of North East, MD, and Mary Ellen McCandless (Sean) of Elkton, MD. He is survived by 11 grandchildren, 8 great-grandchildren and 2 more on the way. George is also survived by one sibling, his sister, Mary Grace Cianelli of Debary, FL.
We will miss his candid sense of humor and his twinkling blue eyes!
