My dad is so cool because he has always been there for me through so many troubles in my life. He is also a real Santa 24 hours 7 days a week, all year long. He brings such joy to peoples lives all year long. He has been Santa for 15 years. He is also a dispatcher for the police dept and loves helping people. He
has also been involved in little league baseball for 30 years and loves every minute he gets to spend with the children that play ball. He is definitely the coolest dad you could ever ask for and I love him for all he does for all people.

Every summer, to get cool, he cuts his hair into a "do" that sticks straight up and looks "punk." He insists on taking his shirt off to cut the grass (with his "cool" riding mower) and build funky bird houses for the neighbors and himself.

As a young boy, my father's day might be spent at the Air Force Museum in Dayton, Ohio or watching an air show at the base. Did he know then that watching a small helicopter demo yards away to the 'Bunny Hop' would lead to my career as a 25 year Sikorsky field advisor, supporting a machine that would 'Hop' to the rescue of so many folks, like USAF Capt. Scott O'Grady. I have the
coolest dad ever!

I would like to acknowledge my dad's coolness posthumously. He died 7 years ago but was always a great dad. He was a great father to 10 children that he raised in an upper middle class home. He was an All American college football player and was NEVER one to force sports on us. I went to play college ball as he did, but decided to forfeit my scholarship and not play in college. Never did he try to force me to continue, though as I look back now, I wish he had. He was a great man and someone I respect immensely as I grow older and have a son of my own now. Rest in peace dad, we love you!

Our dad takes us on really fun bike rides, the best one of all was the 42 mile, Bike New York Ride in NYC on May 5 2000. If we needed a push on some of those really big NYC bridges, he was there for us!

My dad is the coolest because he has always been their for me and whatever, however, I chose to live and/or make of my life he knew that I would always make the right decision, even though at times he probably would not agree with my decisions in life he let me learn and accepted my decisions. He is a loving, husband, father, grandfather, brother and uncle. He brings much joy to all that come in contact with him. I have heard over a million times your dad is soooo cooooool.....and I say yea..I know he's the best!!!

You NEVER give up your COOL! Anyway, that is Dad's belief! He just built a new additional 2 car garage for his car hobby (1934 Plymouth PE Sedan and 1931 Model A Ford Sedan) which is Street Rodding. So what was the first purchase? A Carrier motel unit to Cool the 2 Car Garage. Never suffer with heat when you can have Carrier keep you COOL! So now we only worry about him falling asleep under the car, in his new 2 car garage workroom with kwik lift ramps, Ace Industrial Bead Blaster, Craftsman Tools and the Carrier A/C keeping them all Cool in their own little HEAVEN! After All, he has everything he wants! Now what was this about brand names don't matter when we went shopping for Tennis Shoes when I was a teenager???

My dad is cooler than the coolest day in December. He is in the Air Force and has to be away from home a lot of the time. That is okay though as I know he is helping to keep all of us safe. He may be cool in spirit but he has the warmest heart of anyone I know!

When my dad worked for Carrier, years ago, he built an ice cream maker from copper tubing, a metal bucket, and some old refrigerator parts. It looked like something from Junkyard Wars, but he used it to make the most delicious peach ice cream I ever tasted¿then or now.

My father passed away in 1997 and is sadly missed but he was an amazing man! He was the most intelligent person I have yet to meet and he enjoyed sharing his knowledge with others to help others learn all they could. He was a history teacher and professor in Pennsylvania and enjoyed every day of his 45 years of teaching. He took my sister and I to many places to teach us about history and to be able to show us as well. He was a great man!

Our dad is SO COOL! He¿s a big kid himself. He has remote control cars and a Play Station. He gets almost as dirty as we do when we play together. He takes us to the park and his favorite place, the racetrack (where someday he wants to race his 68 Mustang). We have the BEST dad in the world!

Neither my Dad nor I are eligible for the T-shirt. I wish he was! You see, he and my Mom were special people to Dr. Carrier, just as he was to them. Dad and Mom were married on Dr. Carrier's estate. What is cooler than receiving your bride from the hand of Willis H. Carrier?

Ok... Mr. Cool is my dads nickname.. he has always seen to it that our family is "cool!" Running an Air Conditioning Company is what he does for a living but being cool is a full time job! He even named his boat "NO SWEAT" not even intended as a pun... ha-ha! No matter what he will always be cool and our family will always be kept cool.. We'll never be without A/C... home, car, office, boat or wherever. Dad makes sure that we're cool and to top it off he sees to it that his friends and coworkers are always kept cool! Because of course there is no need to sweat. Great reasons to be named Mr. Cool huh?! I think so he's the coolest father ever! Not cold as ICE, just COOL! :-)

Dad: Christopher
My Dad is cool because he plays outside with me every night, throws ball with me, and when he works late, he plays rough with me in the living room, even though we know my mom hates it. He is also cool because he makes sure that he attends everything I do. I was adopted, he says mom and dad were a family that needed a baby and I was a baby that needed a family and it was all part of God's plan.

I love my dad because he is a barrel of fun. He is loving, kind, and supports me and my brother in everything we do. He works hard in the air conditioning business. I think my dad is so cool he should have a "cool dad" tee shirt.
