How Do I Remove Display Objects in External Functions with Corona SDK Storyboard API?

I am having a lot of trouble adding and removing items to the sceneGroup from listener functions and other functions which are outside of the standard scene:createScene and scene:enterScene.

Every so often I need to completely reset a lot of the objects on the screen and I have a function contentReset() at the top of the scene, after the first two typical lines of

local storyboard = require( "storyboard" )
local scene = storyboard.newScene()

In contentReset() I delete some objects created in scene:createScene and add new ones. But they refuse to work with sceneGroup:Insert(), even if I declare the object names at the top of the scene file, as Corona has done in the Storyboard samples...

In conclusion/summary: I would like to see how to manage the creation and deletion of sceneGroup members outside of the initial create/enter scene functions.

I am using the same API,when I want to exit the scene I use a exit scene function and in that scene I use: 

storyboard.purgeScene("scene");
storyboard.removeAll()

It removes the display objects,I am not sure if that is what you are looking for.
