NEW LENOX, IL— Father's Day is the perfect time to give a big thanks to all the dads who put smiles on our faces. New Lenox, meet Jeff Studlow.

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 Emily Studlow who nominated Jeff Studlow of New Lenox.

What makes your dad extra special?

My dad works extremely hard to keep his town safe, then makes the time to help coach my softball team. He has almost never missed a single game for my sister or myself and makes sure to be at every school event. He makes us laugh every day, makes the best breakfast and helps me learn to ride my bike and rollerblade. He is selfless and I can always count on him.

Why do you feel your dad deserves the spotlight?

He would give up everything to make my sister and me and my mom happy and safe.

Happy Father’s Day to Jeff Studlow, and thank you for all you do!
