JOLIET, IL— Father's Day is the perfect time to give a big thanks to all the dads who put smiles on our faces. Joliet, meet Bobby Guthrie.
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 Emalee Guthrie who nominated Bobby Guthrie of Joliet.
What makes your dad extra special?
My dad has always been the best dad to us and will always step out of his way to do anything for us. He is an amazing person and I really couldn’t have anyone better in my life. My dad always has jokes to tell no matter what the conversation is. He is always there for his kids and will always be here for us. Happy Father’s Day, Dad. I love you!
Why do you feel your dad deserves the spotlight?
My dad deserves the spotlight because he does more than enough for his family and he does what he can for us. He is always trying his best even if he doesn’t show it. He deserves this a lot more than anything.
Happy Father’s Day to Bobby Guthrie, and thank you for all you do!
