Need some suggestions please

I am usually really good at this but I am completely drawing a blank on what to get my dad. He has been such an amazing person in my life and he is VERY sentimental. i know he would rather have something from the heart rather than a watch or cufflinks as a gift. I just can't think of ANYTHING! And if I have to have something made I need to start now. Any suggestions on a really sentimental gift for dad??

Thanks so much!!!

how about a frame with a picture of you and him as a little girl and another one with you two older..i did that for my dad once and had it engraved also, said 'daddy's little girl forever' and it made him cry, he loved it

maybe a plaque of some sort with a touching poem on it and a picture?

I got a double frame and had this peom written on one side with a pic of us as (me as a kid) on the other side...

You were my hero
Not like all the rest
When it came to fathers
You were always the best.

You were a teacher
Like none I've ever known
Teaching that reaping comes
From the seeds that are sown.

You were my best pal
My first real friend
You will remain that to me
Until the very end.

You were the first man
That taught me about love
One pure and simple
Sent from God above.

You were the man
To all others I would compare
You placed the stars in my eyes...
My husband keeps them there.
