    For his 60th, my brother and I got my father a fancy chess set of carved figurines (like the crusaders v. Ottomans, or Germans v. the English). It seemed like something that was vaguely commemorative, certainly special, and also lots of fun.

      That sounds like a very nice gift. Thank you.

    My father loves to garden, so I got him a small banzai tree to take care of and trim. He loved it!

    My Uncle turns 50 this year and we decided that a fun gift would be a family tree. I think at this point in a person's life it is nice to look at what legacy they are a part of. Something more personalized like a family coat of arms would be a unique gift also.

    I had  thrown a surprise bonfire-cook out.  At the party we had everyone that attended, autograph and write a message on a sheet of paper and framed it.  He smiled all night.
