Paul was one of my favorite cousins--always coming to me when a family member was in need. My mother was Ruth Thrash who along with her sister , my Aunt Ellen ,made their home with the Rumbles after their parents died. Mother was married at their home. I'm glad that Eddie Bowden wanted the home place as it is uniquely beautiful. The well was on the back porch, screened and protected from the elements. Rest in peace, dear Paul.
