NASHUA, NH— Father's Day is the perfect time to give a big thanks to all the dads who put smiles on our faces. Nashua, meet Andy Bernier.

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 Nicole Bernier who nominated Andy Bernier of Nashua.

What makes your dad extra special?

It's been a rough couple of years. After losing his son in 2019 and his ex-wife (my mother) last month, he has continued to show up for me. He always has my back and has been right by my side through all of the heartbreak.

Why do you feel your dad deserves the spotlight?

He always takes care of his family, and nothing short of a best friend.

Happy Father’s Day to Andy Bernier, and thank you for all you do!
