Mrs. Dodd and her 5 younger brothers lost their mother at an early age and they were raised by their loving father. Many years passed, and the 6 siblings always recalled their father's hard work in raising their family on the anniversary of his birth.

With the support of Dr. Rasmus, she wrote an earnest letter to the state government calling for the establishment of a Father's Day and suggesting that it be celebrated on June 5, her father's birthday. The state government adopted her suggestion and hastily set Father's Day on the 19th, the 3rd Sunday in June, 1909, as the date. The following year, Mrs. Dodd's city of Spokane officially celebrated the holiday when the mayor proclaimed Father's Day as a statewide observance.

Later, other states also celebrated Father's Day. In order to standardize Father's Day, there was a strong call for Congress to recognize the holiday, and in 1972, President Nixon officially signed the Congressional Resolution establishing Father's Day. This holiday was finally established in the form of law, and has been used to this day.
