Your loved one has left behind a thousand moments that will live in your heart forever… Please know, at this difficult time, that you are in so many thoughts and prayers. Remember, God will take care of you and will give you rainbows after the storms. May you always be in harmony with the beauty and wonders of Gods world, and may His peace surround you at this difficult time. All those sleeping in their graves will wake up and sing for joy. As the sparkling dew refreshes the earth, so the Lord will revive those who have long been dead.”-Isa. 26:19. The day is near when all of those who have fallen asleep will be awaken by Christ-John 5:28,29.
Dear Scarfo family,
I was sadden by the news of Chief Scarfo’s passing he was a good man who will never be forgotten. Chief Scarfo did alot for Cranberry Township without him our Township wouldn’t have the police department we have today. I am glad I knew him and considered him a friend. May he rest in peace.
Sincerely,
Officer Trina Loesch
Evans City Police Department
