Mrs. John Bruce Dodd

[edit]

It appears that at the time, Sonara was using the name "Mrs. John Bruce Dodd"

"The founder of Father's Day is a mother. She is Mrs. John Bruce Dodd, of Spokane, Washington. The idea for Father's Day came to her one morning in 1909, as she was washing dishes while her son, John Bruce Dodd, Jnr., gurgled happily beside her in a high chair."
