"Hey Fox 5, we want Atlanta to know that our dad, Steve Newell is best dad In the whole world! Our dad is 27 years old, he owns and operates his own heating and air conditioning business, through his hard work and determination he has shown us the rewards that come with prayer, obedience and perseverance. He reads us bible stories at night and plays with us when he gets home from work. Our dad lives the way that the Heavenly Father expects us to live and he loves us unconditionally. We love and respect our dad, and we are so blessed to have him in our lives."

Hayden (10), Kady Jo (4), and Joshua (months)

 

"My dad William J. Robinson means so much to my family and I. He met my mother while stationed in France serving the Navy. The stories I recall of their meeting and subsequent dates always bring a smile to my face. They had to always have an interpreter from asking her out of the first date to when he proposed! My father retired after 22yrs and we moved to Florida where my mother passed away in 1980. My father then took the role as Mother and Father. I cannot tell you of the sacrifices he made for my brother and I throughout the years. When I eventually married and had children of my own, he was there daily to help me as my mother would have. My oldest is now 24 and in those 24 years he has only missed a handful of days not seeing his grandchildren and I, and that was only because of sickness. He currently lives in Dallas Georgia where he drives DAILY to Tallapoosa to see us without fail. He always lets us know how much we are loved. He has taught us of the value of family and how much it should be cherished. I love that man dearly! I love you Dad!"

 

"Hi, I'm Letha McBurnett I'm 27 years old. My dad is Jerry Jackson he works at AllGOOD PEST SOLUTIONS. I would like to take a little a moment to say why he is such an awesome farther. He has always been there for me from teaching me how to be lady and how to make sure I treat others with respect. He taught me how to drive even though I always thought the steering wheel had to be right side up at all times. He has always been the one who would tell me the truth no matter how much it hurts. The most important thing that I learned in life from him is to always put GOD first in everything that I do. That's why I think my dad is such an awesome Dad. I appreciate him so much and I hope that I can be half the parent he has been to me and my brother."

Love ya bunches, God bless ya!!!
