The world is a sadder and lesser place without him. Rest in peace Mike.

To the entire Jump family I send my deepest sympathy in your loss. Everyone has been in my thoughts and prayers.
Mike was a good guy! We were close friends at West Point. We were in the same cadet company and played on the 150 lb football team together and studied late at night in the halls after lights out. We shared many joys and heartaches together. I loved that guy! My heart aches for his family.
I too was a very close friend of Mike at West Point.He was a super guy with an infectious personally. Since a relative in Willard owned a men’s clothing store, Mike was always the best dressed cadet whenever we left campus and could where civilian clothes.I remember a lot of madras!
His loss has really affected me.
Shari thinking about you and your family.
Dear Shari and Family,
I am so sorry about Mike, my thoughts and prayers to you and your family. Mike was a special person and good friend.
