The Facts: Fathers hold a special place in our hearts. He may have taught you how to drive a car, given you career advice, or walked you down the aisle. Studies also show the positive impact of an involved dad or father figure can last a lifetime. This influence can enhance self-esteem, educational attainment, and relationships throughout life.
Take time this week to thank your own dad, grandfather, or someone who has filled a fatherly role in your family. Let them know the positive impact they made and just how much they mean to you.

My dad passed away 4.5 Year’s ago and I think about him all the time. I truly do miss having him around, but I know he is in a better place! I talk to him at times and on Father’s Day I told home how much I miss him and all ours talks and his wise advice and just knowing that he was always there! I hope this counts as my mission for this month.
I lost my dad 5 years ago so don’t have a dad to thank on Fathers Day. But his extraordinary example lives on through my brothers and I am fortunate to have married a good man like my dad. So on Fathers Day I thank the men in my family for their commitment and example to their children.
All the men I wanted to Thank for being a great Dad as a role model has passed away. I thanked my husband for being an amazing role model for our two children.
Lost my Dad at age 86 so we had lots of Dad’s Days together. He was the best!!
I thanked my dad for his sage wisdom, such as: “If a frog had wings, he wouldn’t bust his carcass every time he took a leap.” Love you, Dad!
