He is your mom’s personal confidante and best friend. He is your biggest fan, attending your piano recital even if he had to miss work for it. He coached your team and egged you on when you were not sure of your abilities. He made sure the bills got paid and you went to a good school. He was a comforting presence when you were growing up. He made sure that the leak on the roof got fixed and the lawn was mowed.

So how do you show your appreciation to you Dad? TotallyMyStyle.com has these suggestions.
1. Think of what activities he likes and find the perfect gift. If your dad is crazy about golf, maybe you could give him a whole new set of clubs, or perhaps that iron that he has been eyeing. Or how about some fishing gear?
2. Spend time with him. It could be a simple dinner at home, a fishing trip or catching his favorite team play, spend some time with your dad. This would provide him the chance to do what he likes and both of you with a chance to bond and talk.
3. Personalized items. Mugs, lighters, tee shirts emblazoned with “World’s Greatest Dad” might sound cheesy for you, but it will surely warm his heart. Plus points if you create it yourself, like giving him a handcrafted chair with his name on it.
4. Help him look good. Give him a grooming kit, or a shaving set. Better yet, give him something that would remind him of you for a very long time. Like this stainless steel men’s spin ring, which he could wear anywhere:
