A sign stands on Nov. 21, 2014, outside the home where Sonora Smart Dodd lived in Spokane, Wash., in the early 20th century. The sign commemorates Dodd as the person who conceived the idea of Father's Day in 1909, the so-called ''Mother of Father's Day.'' The Craftsman-style house is privately owned and occupied, but the marker telling the story of the local connection to the holiday's history can be seen in the front yard.
