The mishap had cost hundreds of lives, giving rise to what we call today Father’s Day. Grace Golden, a daughter of a dedicated reverend, was the first person to propose this day to honor the men who lost their lives in this accident. 

A few years later, Sonna Dodd re-introduced the idea of this day as she wanted to honor her late father, William Smart. Interestingly, Sonara’s father was a civil war veteran who raised her and five other siblings despite being a single parent. As a result, she announced this day at a national level post her education.
