A man in Indiana received the birthday surprise of his life when he opened up a card to find a touching handwritten message from his father, who had died 16 years earlier.

Jace lost his father when he was just a teenager, so when his mother gave him the card on his 30^th birthday, he believed it was from another relative. But when he opened it up and saw the signature(签名), he began to cry with joy.

“I was really excited,” Jace told Buzzfeed, and Internet news media company. “I burst into tears and it was hared to speak.” On the card was a simple cartoon dog with a speech bubble saying, “You’re 30? You know what that means,” with the inner message reading, “Time to remove ‘dude’ from your vocabulary and turn your baseball cap back around.”

“It’s been so long that I’ve been just kind of used to the idea that he’s been gone,” Jace wrote on Reddit, where he posted a photo of the card. “I’ve lived longer without him than I did with him. So to have these little moments when he kind of comes back into my life again brings everything back in a rush. I cried, but I did because I was so happy.”

Jace told Buzzfeed that this was not the first card he’d received from his long-gone dad; he said he also received cards on his 20^th, 21^st, and 25^th birthdays--- all saved by his mother. But with the last being five years ago, Jace had forgotten about the possibility.

But this may not be the last that Jace hears from his father. He added, “It makes me wonder what he may have planned for if I get married, have kids, or when I turn 40.”
