CONCORD, NH— Father's Day is the perfect time to give a big thanks to all the dads who put smiles on our faces. Concord, meet Wayne.

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 Katy who nominated Wayne of Concord.

What makes your dad extra special?

My father passed away in October 2022. However, he was always there for his three daughters, five granddaughters and his only grandson. He made sure if someone needed a sitter, he was there. If someone broke down, he came to save the day. If you needed food, he would bring you lunch. Grandkids needed a ride? He was 100% there for them. He may be gone but he lives in our hearts forever.

Why do you feel your dad deserves the spotlight?

He was an amazing dad and papa! This is our first Father’s Day without him.
