'They Wouldn't Be The Young Adults They Are': Father's Day Photos

WINDHAM, NH—Whether it's through his or her personality, looks, hobbies or a combination of everything, a son or daughter often takes on the qualities of the dad who raised them. With Father's Day 2018 right around the corner, we are celebrating that special bond by inviting Patch readers across New Hampshire to share their "father-son" or "father-daughter" lookalike photos.

It doesn't matter how old the kids are; they'll always be a chip off the old block.

Rhonda Haley couldn't choose, so she shared three photos of her husband Mark Haley, dad to daughter Cassie, who is now 20, and sons Brandon, now 18, and Jason, now 15. One of the photos features Rhonda's dad Roger Imonti, who she "thanks every day for being the father he is, and for raising me to be the mother I am today. My dad sacrificed everything to make sure my sister and I had the life we have today. The family is from Windham, NH.

Mark is an amazing dad who always has a ton of fun with the kids! He's always there to do anything and everything with our kids. They wouldn't be the young adults they are today if it wasn't for his outlook on life. So blessed to call him my husband, and father of our children. - Rhonda Haley
