HOWELL, NJ— Father's Day is the perfect time to give a big thanks to all the dads who put smiles on our faces. Howell, meet Corey Lombardo.

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 Massimo Lombardo who nominated Corey Lombardo of Howell.

What makes your dad extra special?

He works very hard, even though he is disabled and in pain all day. He works extra hard to support his family and doesn't ask for anything. We love him very much.

Why do you feel your dad deserves the spotlight?

He is disabled, works 7 days a week, is in constant pain, and never complains.

Happy Father’s Day to Corey Lombardo, and thank you for all you do!
