Your family has done you proud it would seem sir. It warms my heart to know that they have not given up and will continue to fight on in your name.

It's hard to believe that it was 35 years ago that we lost you. In many ways it seems like it was only yesterday. Our thoughts are with you, Terry, and the girls.

As my career's end is coming closer, I decided to check and find those who had lost their lives during the year that I was hired. While it's been a long time since your passing, I'm sure those you left behind and those whom with you served with distinction have kept you alive in their memories. Thank you for your service and for looking out for us who continue in our chosen profession. Rest in peace Deputy Mayborne.

We are very pleased to read today that the PRB has voted against parole with even more of a plurality then last year. We are very proud of your family and their efforts and we know you are too. Every year they have to fight this fight and we fully support them and will do whatever they ask. We are also hopeful of the PRB. They made every law abiding person in Illinois proud.

God bless your family as they go through the pain of keeping your killer in prison. No one should have to do that to get justice but they have done so with honor and dignity. Your courage and service in protecting us will never be forgotten.

First, thanks to the Rockford newspaper for featuring this incident. We again signed the on-line petition and encourage others do so too. Secondly, thanks to your family and friends who established a website in Mike's name honoring Deputy Mayborne that not only shares family pictures (those submariners are some kind of guys) but also explains the problem of C-Inmates. Finally, we hope the parole board serves justice. There should be no problem, the C-Inmates simply remain in prison and complete at least the minimum term of their sentences. We were astounded to learn his killer was eligible for parole in less than ten years of his crime.
