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 Opie Thayer.

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 McKenzie & Kyler Thayer who nominated Opie Thayer of Concord.

What makes your dad extra special?

He is an extremely hard worker, and he never stops! He is always there no matter what it is, sports games, birthday parties, or holidays, he never misses anything for the people he cares about. He is the best Bampa and loves his grandkids more than anything. He puts his family and loved ones before anything else and he deserves the world.

Why do you feel your dad deserves the spotlight?

He deserves to be recognized and appreciated for the amazing man that he is. And to know how much we love him.

Happy Father’s Day to Opie Thayer, and thank you for all you do!
