Not sure what to say?

I thank you for all the beauty you added to this world and the wonderful friendship we were privileged to share! God bless and heal you!

About this time of year Paul and me would start talking about how the Trout would be running in the Delaware Bay. We made many trips to the Bay in Paul's van. We caught a bunch of fish and always had a great time. I miss those trips and I miss Paul. Pete Wise, Pete's Outdoor Store

Mr. Scaborough had an eye for finding the sublime in the everyday, yet overlooked familiar landscapes of his beloved Pennsylvania and Delaware.He is missed.

Can't believe it has been a year. Keeping you in my prayers---may you rest in peace my dear friend.

I just learned of Paul's passing on 3/7. We had many happy times fishing together and swapping stories. We exchanged Christmas cards for 20 years..except 2013.

My heart goes out to Barbara and the Family at the news of this rather sudden, difficult passing of a beloved artist and person in our Art Community. I was shocked by the news and will hold you all in my prayers and in my heart. Sincerely, Bert Proscino

As I read the heartfelt condolences sent by so many of Paul's admirers I was struck by the recurring comment "only met him once" apparently that was enough
to elicit an instant connection to this most remarkable man. Recall an art critic in praise of Paul's Art as a painter whose poetry was always present in his paintings. Gene McLane

To Paul's Family...I just learned of my dear friend's passing. Knew "Skip" for a very long time 1959. I was shocked to receive the news of his passing. My prayers are with you all and I know he will be missed by so many for a long time.God bless you and be with you thru this sad time.

To the grandchildren, Jaime, Kendel, Virginia and Jon, I have many fond memories of you all with Paul at the early morning bus stop. I smile just thinking of them. Know that you will meet again, until then you will always have your memories. with love, Noreen ( mrs. fitz )
