Ed and Christian McCaffrey recently gave a Father’s Day gift to a military dad and daughter duo.
The McCaffreys surprised the Panthers fans Jeremy and Ella, both active in the military, through the help of USAA.
“To me, Father’s Day is a special day. I always wanted to be like my dad,” Christian McCaffrey says in the video. “And I just remember going to the games and hanging out with some of his teammates and, you know, just kind of having blast in the locker room. So those are days I will never forget.”
.
Dads and father figures play such a huge role in the paths we choose. Great to work with and the to surprise a and his daughter – who also chose to serve – for . Thanks to all those who guide and inspire us.
