Lincolnpimpin, I believe it is a state law that you have to be at least 18 years old before getting a Tattoo, do alot of research first before getting one make sure a tattoo is what you want, because once it is on it is permanent. There are alot of designs out there select the one you want or design a custom tattoo with something about your dad on it, do a google search on tattoos, good luck :Beer
