Happy Fathers Day to all DADS; The first known celebration of fathers day was on July 5th, 1908 in Fairmont West Virginia at William Memorial Methodist church. In 1924 President Calvin Coolidge recommended that fathers day become a national holiday. President Lyndon Johnson designated the 3rd Sunday of June to be fathers day in 1966. Roses are the official flower on fathers day, red for those alive, white for those passed on; "Our Father who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name"
