So, give a proper toast to the man who would do just about anything for his family. Let him know that his dad-ly duties are appreciated by planning one of these fun Father's Day activities this year.

If my kids are out there looking for a Father’s Day gift this weekend, I’d take a fresh copy of “The Road” or any book by McCarthy, who died on Tuesday in Santa Fe, N.M., at 89.

If your dad is anything like ours, then he's nearly impossible to shop for this Father's Day. Sure, he'll say, "I don't need anything," but secretly, he's craving something new and fun.
