BANNING-BEAUMONT, CA— Father's Day is the perfect time to give a big thanks to all the dads who put smiles on our faces. Banning-Beaumont, meet Raymon Hallard.

If you know a dad who sends sweet, silly or thoughtful texts your way, you’re pretty lucky. Texts from Dad have a way of putting a smile on our faces — and this Father’s Day, we’re celebrating the fathers behind the phones!

Patch has partnered with T-Mobile to shine a light on awesome dads and the funny, insightful things they say. This submission comes from Adam Wagner & Patrick Williams who nominated Raymon Hallard of Banning-Beaumont.

What makes your dad extra special?

He married my mom. He is the best stepdad ever. He supports my brother and me in school, home [and] life.

Why do you feel your dad deserves the spotlight?

Because he has taken care of us — accepted my brother and myself as his stepkids, but treats us like he was there when we were born.

Happy Father’s Day to Raymon Hallard, and thank you for all you do!
