Crist Statement on Father's Day

Statement by
GOVERNOR CHARLIE CRIST

Regarding Father's Day

"A father's influence extends to more than molding character and instilling confidence. As my father has done for me, fathers encourage, love, guide and support the ongoing success of their children. I join Floridians this Father's Day weekend in celebrating and honoring the men who shoulder this responsibility each day.

“I appreciate the unwavering and steadfast commitment of our fathers and salute those who serve as father figures throughout our state. Our thoughts and prayers are with our military fathers who are away from their children while serving our country and defending our freedoms.”
