Happy Father's day to the dads of KelownaNow

Today is the day to honour dads.

And just in case you were wondering what daddy-honouring looks like, the KelownaNow team have written heartfelt tributes to their fathers.

Here they are:

Happy Father's Day dad!

You've made me laugh from day one and made sure I had a happy childhood, no matter the sacrifice. Thanks for always cheering me up when I’m feeling down and for always being a source of great advice. I couldn't have asked for a better role model, teacher, or friend.

I hope you have an amazing Father's Day and a fantastic birthday. You deserve it.

Love you!

Iain

My dad’s a top lad, as we say in my benighted homeland.

Everything he had to give, he gave for his children. He worked himself like a medieval serf so we could be comfortable. He sacrificed his dreams so that we might have our own.

An honest, decent man, and the first person I’d go and chat with in any room in the world.

Happy Father’s Day, old bean.

It's hard to put into words the impact that my dad had on me.

Even though our time together was cut short, he did everything in his power to make me a better human being and set me up for success.

He is and always will be my hero and I miss him every single day.

Dad, you have always shown me how to do everything so I could grow into an independent and knowledgeable woman.

I am so thankful for you taking the time throughout my life to educate me on things, even if at the time I didn't seem to care, I appreciate it now.

Thank you for always supporting me, listening to me, cheering me on and giving me the stubbornness to always get my way.

I love you, and wish I could be hanging out with you on this Father's Day.

I’m super fortunate to have lucked out big time in the dad department.

My dude Jeffrey is the reason I am who I am today! He showed me all of my favourite bands, took me to all the loudest concerts and managed to push me up to the front of the stage and is still always down to adventure through small towns while listening to our favourite Steppenwolf cassettes.

He taught me how to be kind, respectful, social and a hard worker. He is hands down the raddest dad out there and my very best friend. Happy Father’s Day!

My step-dad Rob (Wob) is one of the biggest teddy bears on the planet! He always knows how to make you feel safe and prepared for all of life’s curveballs.

He keeps me on my toes with thought-provoking conversation, but also makes me keel over with laughter at his really bad jokes.

Thanks for everything, Wob!

Happy Father's Day to my main man Glenn!

He's the absolute best friend, father, role model, bro, wingman, coach legend and style guru a kid could ask for.

I am you in so many ways! Love ya dude.
