To Nancy, Salena and Glen:
I am sorry to hear of your loss. Dr. Scarborough was a friend and college. I remember how welcomed everyone made me feel when I moved to Rocky Mount. Stan was a good man and doctor. He will be deeply missed by all who knew him. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I WORKED FOR DR SCARBOROUGH FOR ABOUT
8 YRS AND GIVE ALL MY APPRECIATION FOR THE MANY OFFICE, PHYSICAL THERAPY AND X-RAY I WAS ABLE TO ACCOMPLISH. DR SCARBOROUGH WAS A WONDERFUL DOCTOR AS WELL AS A FRIEND. I LEARNED TO LOVE HIS ENTIRE FAMILY AND WORK WITH HIS DAUGHTER SELENA. I WILL ALWAYS HAVE A SPECIAL PLACE IN MY HEART FOR THE ENTIRE FAMILY, AS THEY HELPED ME RECOVER MY SON, JASON WHEN HE HAD BEEN KIDNAPPED. I LOST JASON 2 & 1/2 YEARS AGO AND I CAN FEEL YOUR LOSS AND GRIEF.
MY LOVE AND SYMPATHY GOES TO YOU.

We were so sorry to learn that Stan had had a stroke and then to learn of his passing. We only met once on October 8, 1994 but I still remember what a wonderful person he was. Our thoughts are with you and your family during this difficult time.

I just heard of Dr. Scarborough's passing from my sister, who still lives in Rocky Mount. I worked for Dr. Scarborough from 1980-1985 and I have very fond memories of working for him and getting to know the whole family. My condolences to you all.

I worked for Dr. Scarborough for 10 years, he was the best teacher and friend I ever had...I wish the community and his patients knew how this great Dr., didn't charge them because they needed help and didn't have the money. I hope they remember the kindness he showed by meeting them on saturdays and sundays when they were in pain. He was a great doctor and they don't make'em like him any more!!! I will always miss him..LeDonna, Rocky Mt., NC
