A father has never been in my life so I don’t even think about it.
My priest was thankful.
I don’t generally believe in the paranormal whatsoever, but my dad gave us each a wallet-sized ouija board as a joke before he passed a few months ago (“keep in touch”), so I sent a quick “love you dad” on it, just in case.
That’s a lovely story!
Not a good day for me. I had a horrible childhood and my dad was the one good thing about it. I miss him.
🌷sorry to hear
Thanks friend hope you’re having a good day
I’m sorry for your loss. Love from an internet stranger and a dad.
Thanks internet stranger and dad. Got any good dad jokes? It IS father’s day
Only virtual hugs.

Bless you. And remember there’s enough love for you out there in this world — hiding where it may.
Miss dad every day. He passed about a year and a half ago. Was outside working and a mosquito bit him, a week later he was being taken off the ventilator. West Nile Virus, it attacked his nervous system and he couldn’t breathe on his own anymore.
He wasn’t perfect, but he was mine. He loved me, and was always telling me how proud of me he was.
I think it hurts more because I’m adopted. Dad chose me. Specifically. I was his, and he was proud of that. I miss him so damn much.
I’ve missed my dad every day since he departed twenty years ago.
That’s rough mate how are you doing? I’m gonna say hi to my lemmy dads in !dadforaminute@lemmy.world soon that’ll help me
I thought I’d miss him less over time but I miss him the same as ever. The raw edge of pain is long gone but will surface with just a thought.
Hugs from an internet stranger and a dad…
Thank you ☺️
My family mostly forgot about it, which honestly is fine.
I got to watch my oldest son get his blackbelt in Aikido, and if that’s not a dad moment I’m not sure what is.
Tough, my dad died in 2012. My kid is busy and typically forgets things like Mother’s Day and Father’s Day. I poke him to remember Mother’s Day.
It falls on the second sunday in November here
Gone no contact with my dad for over year. So basically celebrating summer solstice and that’s it.
My father died when i was around 8, so can’t remember much about him. In addition i don’t really see the point or reason to put up the charade of celebrating holidays either. So it’s just another day.
We had fathers day on 14. of May. It was okay. Had a little present basket for my father with foreign beers and crisps and got myself a kindergarten crafted present from my daughter.
It’s an ordinary work day but I let myself sleep in a little. Kid and the baby mama are out of town today but I’ll get to hang out with the kid tomorrow and baby mama promised me a hookup as a Father’s Day present. Can’t complain lol.
Very grateful for my stepdad.
I got my first “Happy Father’s Day” yesterday because one kid forgot what day it was.
Tonight we’re taking my dad out for sushi.
