I was working at INOVA Fairfax Hospital when Vicky and Mike were flown to us for care. I will never forget how hard everyone worked to save their lives while being so distraught over the kind and hard working officers we came to know in the ER. Mike and Vicky, you will always be remembered, especially by me. I was a young nurse at the time, and I will never forget how many people you touched on the street and in the ER. Thinking about you during each and every holiday season. My heart goes out to your families!

Hi Mike,

Happy Police Week 2011! Just wanted to let you know that my wife rode in the Unity Tour this year. 230 miles! She rode for Deputy Ridings from Sptosylvania County, but I'm sure you won't mind. The funny thing is that she has connected with your daughters. She was so happy to see them for the first time at the memorial. She always talked to them through facebook and has always wanted to meet them. Your daughters are awesome young women with big hearts. I hope you know that people do care and will always be there for them. Thank you for your sacrifice and the sacrifice of your family.

Gabby,

I have to tell you, I just learned that 2nd Lieutenant Mark Payton past away today. He died at home while off duty, and he had a heart attack. He was a very good person and a great cop! I think he was in the motorcade for your funeral. Payton was lead Supervisor of the Fairfax County Police Department's Motor Squad. ♥

Gabby,
I while at police week 2010 I got to meet a very special person. It was your father, he was walking around talking about his son and how proud of a father he was. While talking to him he asked me if he could give me something. Not knowing what he might give me I replied with a yes. As I type this I am setting here looking at what he gave me. It is a card with a photo of you on it with the thin blue line in the back ground. Under the photo it says, SMPO Mike "Gabby" Garbarino. On the back it has Romans 13:14 on it. I want to think you for your service. I also want to think your father for the photo card.

Gabby, still miss you buddy...patrolling the streets on Mclean just aren't the same without you to be there with us, but we know you're watching over us, and we're doing our best to make you proud. Keep the streets of heaven safe, and we'll met again someday.
