He's the father of two boys and the teacher you wish you'd had in high school. Tommy Doucette, Farragut High School gym teacher and coach, along with his wife, Dr. Margaret Lubert, have two boys, 17-year-old J. T. and 13-year-old Patrick.

In this part of the country where football is king, there are 10 coaches at Farragut and Doucette is the coach for linebackers. J.T. is one of the linebackers for the team.

Doucette has a rule that he uses with his sons and with his students. "I try to set an example for them in life. If you give kids respect, they respect you back." He can take teasing, though. Tommy Doucette is originally from Boston and that accent stands out here in East Tennessee. His students make fun of it and imitate him.

June 15 is a special day this year for dads across America. On Father’s Day, they’re told how much they’re loved and thanked for what they do or did as fathers.

This special celebration isn’t as old as many of America’s events. It began almost 100 years ago in a city similar in size to Knoxville. Spokane, Washington, on the eastern side of the state, was the home of Sonora Smart Dodd. The sermon in church on Mother’s Day in 1909 made her think about her father, a man who had raised her and her five siblings after her mother had died in childbirth. Dodd wanted to let him know how much she appreciated the many sacrifices he had made for them.

A major motorcycle event will be in Knoxville from June 18-21, Wednesday through Saturday. A total of 16,000-18,000 people are expected to attend the 15th Honda Hoot, with more than 12,000 motorcycles between them. So far, there are people coming from 48 states and the District of Columbia, four Canadian provinces, the United Kingdom, Ireland and Israel.

Registration for the ride itself concluded as of the end of May, But you can register for additional events on Wednesday, the first day of the Honda Hoot.
