What Does Your Dad Mean to You?

Father's Day is here, and the sale signs and circulars everywhere have promoted gifts like ties, electronics, and other gadgets for Dad.

But this year, Patch invites you to gift your father, stepfather, uncle, grandfather - or any other man that has been influential in your life - with a unique tribute: share his story in the blogs or on the boards.

What are some of your fondest memories with Dad? What advice has he offered you that has helped you the most over the course of your life? Why is he so special to you? Why does he deserve recognition? (You can also take the opportunity to brag on your husband about what makes him an amazing father.)

Tell us about your Dad and share photos through Patch. Then you can surprise him by sending him an e-card with the link.

Happy Father's Day!
