The home Paul built for his bride, Jean Thomson, of Edinburgh,
Scotland was
 named after a
street near her home, Comely Bank. As you
explore the writings or Paul Harris and read the history of Rotary,
you'll find that the founder of Rotary was a visionary, romantic,
peacemaker. He loved his wife,
his friends, and their "Children" which were embodied in the
creation and phenomenal success of Rotary International.
What this
home represented was a place of friendship, from the Garden to the
many images shown below. Rotary today needs this haven of
neighborliness to resume the healing, contemplation, and nurturing
in our age. Comely Bank is monument to friendship and more.
You can be inspired by the
life and legacy of Paul Harris! You can also become a
patron of what this home represented and can continue to
accomplish today.
