In celebration of Father’s Day, we look back at the most inspirational dads that have touched our hearts and inspired us.
From the incredible first-time dad, Carlos Morales, whose lifelong dream to become a father finally came true but at a deadly cost after his wife, Erica died hours after giving birth.
Then there is police officer Eric Ellison. Just days after informing 18-year-old Kazzie Portie that both his parents died, the kind-hearted law enforcer stepped in as a surrogate father figure to attend the young man’s graduation.
Meanwhile we can’t stop giggling over legendary basketballer Stephen Curry and his incredibly cheeky two-year-old daughter, Riley, who stole the spotlight during a post-game press conference.
Woman’s Day also had the privilege to meet the brave Aussie military fathers who sacrificed precious time with their family for active service.
Then there was the phenomenal real-life superhero papa who went the extra mile to make sure his beautiful daughter never feels left out, by getting an amazing tattoo of her cochlear ear implant.
And you better bring the tissues for Blake Schow’s incredible display of love and devotion to his terminally ill little girl.

Earlier in the year Carlos Morales’ story broke our hearts. His lifelong dream to become a father came true, but at a deadly cost after his wife, Erica died hours after giving birth. “I didn’t know how I would survive without her. But almost five months later, I understand why I am still here. My babies are four beautiful blessings. They are becoming little humans. I just wish Erica could see them grow up,” Carlos smiled to People. WATCH: the dad with his kids in the next slide. Gallery continues after the video
