History of Father's Day
Father’s Day is celebrated in the 3rd Sunday in June.
The idea for creating a day for children to honor their
fathers began in Spokane, Washington. A woman by
the name of Sonora Smart Dodd thought of the idea
for Father's Day while listening to a Mother's Day
sermon in 1909. Having been raised by her father,
Henry Jackson Smart, after her mother died, Sonora
wanted her father to know how special he was to
her. It was her father that made all the parental
sacrifices and was, in the eyes of his daughter, a
courageous, selfless, and loving man. Sonora's
father was born in June, so she chose to hold the
first Father's Day celebration in Spokane,
Washington on the 19th of June, 1910.
In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge proclaimed the
third Sunday in June as Father's Day. President
Nixon, in 1972, established a permanent national
observance of Father's Day to be held on the third
Sunday of June. So Father's Day was born as a
token of love and gratitude that a daughter
cherishes for her beloved father. Roses are the
Father's Day flowers: red to be worn for a living
father and white if the father has died.
