Poll: Happy Father's Day 2025! Doing anything special for the holiday?

My youngest daughter came today. Then it rained all day and we stayed in. People with fathers, living or dead, don't know how lucky they are to have those memories. I don't recall mine at all because I was around three last time I saw him. He died in 1948 when I was six. I didn't learn his fate until I was in my fifties and had a computer to connect me with people. He was 33.

Sorry to learn that about your dad.

Did anyone light any fireworks and/or firecrackers in your neighborhood on Father's Day? Some people did that in MY neighborhood. I don't understand why.

I have great memories of my Dad, very strong, very protective and also smart enough to encourage me.

I'm happy my dad was a Christian and that God cleaned him up before he passed. My mom prayed to bring my dad back. The Lord told my mom if He brought him back he might night have made it into the Rapture.

Called my brother and talked to him for a while. Did not get a chance to reach my father (although I did leave a message) as I think he was out at bingo or the like. I'll call Dad tomorrow.

Although, people generally set off (most) of their fireworks on the 4th of July, some people set off some of their fireworks days or a week or two leading up to the 4th of July and continue setting off leftover fireworks days after the 4th of July.

Most likely the fireworks you saw or heard were early 4th of July fireworks.

I'm happy my dad made it into Heaven.
