Whether for Christmas, Birthday, or Father's Day, a "Dad" ring
is a thoughtful gift from the children. We all know the story behind
Christmas and why you celebrate his birthday, but do you know Father's
Day history? The holiday is celebrated on different dates around the
globe. In the United States and Canada, it is the third Sunday in June.
Back in the late nineteenth century, a good
hearted man lost his wife as she gave birth to their sixth
baby. This man persevered, as many of us do, in the face of
adversity. He--along with his only daughter, 16 at the time
of her mother's death--worked hard to raise the boys and
provide a happy home.
Many years later, when all the children were
grown, the daughter wanted to do something to honor her
father as mother's are on Mother's Day. She set out to make
Father's Day a reality. The day was a hit regionally and
finally became a national U.S. holiday in 1966.
