A Rumblebum Life
This is a story about real love, the kind that doesn't always come easy, the kind that survives heartbreak,

grows through trials, and finds its voice in the quiet moments of life. It's a journey through the beauty and chaos of family, the ache of loss, and the sacredness of second chances.

In these pages, you'll find stories rooted in memory: family fishing trips with a father who taught with silence and strength; childhood laughter echoing across game nights where Mom always seemed to bend the rules with a wink; the soft glow of evenings shaped by faith and the simple magic of being together. But woven into these joyful moments is also the pain of divorce, the grief of dreams that didn't last, and the lonely weight of wondering if love would ever return.

And then, when hope felt distant, came grace.
This book tells the deeply personal story of finding true love in the aftermath of loss. Of meeting a soulmate not with fireworks, but with peace. A woman whose quiet faith and unwavering strength became the lighthouse in the storm. Through her, the author learned what love looks like when it's lived, not just spoken. Together, they began again, not perfectly, but purposefully.
Part memoir, part love letter, and part spiritual reflection, this book is for anyone who has ever felt broken,
yet hoped for more. It's a testimony of God's timing, of healing after heartbreak, and of the extraordinary beauty found in ordinary family moments.
Because love doesn't always arrive when we expect it, but when it's real, it changes everything.

About the Author

Bumper Boy grew up with one foot planted in the green, rain-washed landscapes of Washington and the
other in the red rock and wide skies of Utah. The contrast between these places shaped his perspective
early on: he learned to find peace in the quiet of the woods and strength in the ruggedness
of the desert. But more than anything, it was family that shaped him. Not the polished, postcard version,
but the real, complicated, beautifully imperfect kind. His life has been a tapestry of memories, some
warm and full of laughter, others painful and heavy, but all of them meaningful.


At the heart of his writing is a deep and enduring love for his family. Whether it’s the chaos of game night, the
quiet grief of a goodbye, or the sacred joy of a new beginning, Bumper Boy sees story in all of it. His
desire to document these moments is more than nostalgia, it’s a mission. He believes in preserving the
voices, quirks, and faith-filled moments of his family so future generations can read them, learn from
them, and feel connected to something larger than themselves.


Life hasn’t always been kind. There have been moments of heartbreak and despair, times when the darkness
felt suffocating, when prayers felt unanswered, and hope seemed far away. But through those
moments, he found clarity. Through faith, through quiet conversations with God, and through the
support of people who showed up when he needed them most, he has endured.


He believes that families are eternal, that love doesn’t end at the grave, and that our hardest chapters often
lead to our greatest growth. In his writing, Bumper Boy doesn’t shy away from pain, but he doesn’t let it
have the final word either. He writes with honesty, reverence, and hope, always hope.


For Bumper Boy, this life is but a moment, a blink in the eternal timeline. But it is a moment worth capturing.
Worth remembering. And most of all, worth sharing.
