History of Father’s Day

Father’s Day originated in the United States as a way to honor and celebrate the role of fathers and paternal figures in society. The idea was first proposed by Sonora Smart Dodd in Spokane, Washington, in 1909. Inspired by Mother’s Day, she wanted to pay tribute to her father, William Jackson Smart, a Civil War veteran and single parent who raised six children by himself.

The first Father’s Day celebration took place on June 19, 1910, in Spokane. Over the decades, the idea spread, gaining national recognition. In 1966, U.S. President Lyndon B. Johnson officially proclaimed the third Sunday of June as Father’s Day. Later, in 1972, President Richard Nixon signed it into law as a permanent national holiday.

Now celebrated around the world in different months and manners, Father’s Day is a global tribute to the strength, love, and sacrifice of fathers everywhere.

These quotes serve as little windows into the depth of a father’s love. They remind us how lucky we are to have someone who stands like a silent mountain—always there, always strong. This Father’s Day, don’t just say “I love you”—say it with words that echo forever.

Happy Father’s Day 💙
