TAMPA, FL— Father's Day is the perfect time to give a big thanks to all the dads who put smiles on our faces. Tampa, meet Louie.
If you know a dad who sends sweet, silly or thoughtful texts your way, you’re pretty lucky. Texts from Dad have a way of putting a smile on our faces — and this Father’s Day, we’re celebrating the fathers behind the phones!
Patch has partnered with T-Mobile to shine a light on awesome dads and the funny, insightful things they say. This submission comes from Haley Coniglio who nominated Louie of Tampa.
What makes your dad extra special?
My daddy makes sure I have everything I would need in order to live comfortably by all means necessary. He also sends me a goodnight text every night to bless angels all around me.
Why do you feel your dad deserves the spotlight?
My daddy has always been a rock. He has financially carried his family for the past 2 years through hard work and dedication and never skipped a day of work.
Happy Father’s Day to Louie, and thank you for all you do!
