Father’s day was conceived by Sonora Dodd in 1909, who wanted to way to honor her father, a civil war veteran who raised his six children alone. In 1910, they celebrated the first “Father’s Day” in Spokane Washington.

So now we celebrate it today, the third Sunday of June. For all fathers out there, Happy Father’s Day!!
