Scarafile co-founded Boscar Electric Company, Inc., located at 745 Lafayette St. During the company's 18-year history, Peter served customers throughout central NY by handling the electrical components and systems in new construction projects, as well as by repairing existing electrical installations. Gifted with innate abilities, Mr. Borello was recognized and respected as an expert in his chosen field. As a highly skilled electrician and also a conscientious businessman of great integrity, Mr. Borello was committed to his trade, dedicated to the goal of providing quality work, and determined to serve his clientele with honesty and loyalty.

As a result, he proved to be and exemplary husband and dad. Just as deeply committed to his other loved ones and to his friends, Peter also successfully and admirably fulfilled his roles as son, brother, uncle and friend. Among his many noteworthy personal traits and qualities, Peter was especially loved for his boundless kindness, his steadfast loyalty, his respect for tradition and values, his unwavering reliability and his comical sense of humor. A man of many interests, Peter especially enjoyed cooking; he appreciated a good meal, he liked preparing favorite dishes and also trying out new ones, and he truly loved sharing his culinary creations, although not his recipes or secret ingredients. He was a communicant of St. Mary of Mt. Carmel Church.
Mr. Borello is survived by his wife, Elisa; his "adored chicklet", daughter Kathryn "Katie" Flora, who was the love and center of his life; and his mother, Eleanor Borello. He is also survived by his sister, Diane LaPolla of Utica, with whom he shared a special bond; and by Diane's husband, Mario E.
