Happy Fathers Day!

Fathers' Day: is a celebration that started in 1910 honoring fathers and celebrating fatherhood, paternal bonds, and the influence of fathers in society. Fathers' Day was created to complement Mother's Day, a celebration that honors mothers and motherhood.

Today is a day to thank your Father for who he is and what he has done to help mold and shape you into the person you have become. Today is also the day to look at your children and realize that as a Father you are helping to mold and shape them into good kids. At times you probably wonder "what is my kid thinking"? Realize your Father probably thought the same when you were growing up.

If you are one of the lucky ones to still have your Father with you, call him, spend time with him or do whatever you can to thank him for helping to guide you through life. At times he may have been a little crazed by your decisions or actions but realize he acted that way out of love for you, his child. Do you ever hear yourself with your children and say to yourself "that's what my Dad used to say to me".

For those working today to protect the Citizens of Los Angeles County. Call your Dad when you can.  Thank him for a "job well done".  Dont be affraid to say "I love you Dad".

For those at home spending time with their family enjoying the outdoors or whatever you do, remember be responsible today.  Make good decisions.

To all our Fathers today, HAPPY FATHER'S DAY. Have a safe day!

Your Local 1014 Executive Board.
