Maiavatele Kuno Falanisisi is grateful and blessed to spend this Father's Day with his family. Maiavatele is an Assistant Chief Executive Officer in the Ministry of Police for Assets and Facilities Management.

"Nothing compares to the bond a father and his children share. The smiles on my children's faces are all that I need for Father's Day. I am grateful and blessed to be spending fathers day together with my wife and kids," he said.

His wife, Regina Maiavatele Falanisisi describes her husband as a hard working man and says he is a blessing not only for their own family but to the community and Samoa as well.

"On Father’s Day, it’s not about the gifts or the grand gestures; it’s about the moments shared, the laughter in the air, and the love that binds us together. A father’s time with his children is the greatest gift, creating memories that will last a lifetime," she said.

Maiavatele and Regina have six children and are very happy that they get to spend another Father's Day together with their whole family. "Nothing beats being together with your loved ones for a special occasion," they said.

There are a few families who will be experiencing their first Father's Day without their father in the picture but the Maiavatele family is blessed that their family is whole during this special day dedicated to all the fathers. The Maiavatele family wishes all the fathers of Samoa a Happy Father's Day.
