Jack Scarborough Obituary
Born December 19, 1946 in Lubbock, Jack grew up in Petersburg, Texas where he was a star athlete. He graduated from Texas Tech University and married his high school sweetheart, Cindy Wilson, in 1968. For 41 years, he was an active member of St. Luke's and the Crusaders Sunday School class. Jack was devoted to his work family at Scarborough Specialties, which he founded in 1992. He loved traveling, the mountains of Ruidoso, the game of golf, quail hunting, cooking out, the Red Raiders, and time with friends. More than anything, Jack treasured every moment with his wife Cindy, their kids, and eight grandchildren who call him Pap.
Jack is survived by his wife Cindy; daughter, Jill Jacobus (Jay) and children Jake, Jud, and Justus; son, Stan Scarborough (Amanda) and children Banner, Hope, and Lily: daughter, Lee Bryant (Tory) and children Devyn and Zeke; brother, Jerry Scarborough (Janette); sister, Judy Sell (George); and sister-in-law, Cathy Wilson. Jack was preceded in death by his parents J.B. and Betty Scarborough.
Memorial donations can be made to the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Living Water International, or St. Luke's UMC.

So sorry to hear about Jack...I was a Stratford Elk and played against him in Dumas, Texas. He was a very tough opponent and I still remember each time I collided with him. I know he will be greatly missed and it is very sad to hear about his passing.
Blessings to his family...Lanny and Vickie Harris.

Jack demonstrated Christianity to everyone around him. He was kind and gentle and always made others feel special and valued. The type of person I would aspire to be.
