However you spend the day, take the time to tell Dad in words or in writing how much he means to you. Fathers are their kids' first teachers and first heroes. Most of us owe a debt that can never be repaid to our Dads. Happy Father's Day to all Dads, stepdads, grandpas, and fathers-in-law everywhere, especially my beloved Dad and husband, both in Heaven.
For those Moms, grandparents, and guardians doing double duty as Mom and Dad and for all who serve in the role of dad, mentoring young people, Happy Father's Day to you too. May you receive many blessings for all that you do.
