<p>A DNA testing service helped a Tennessee woman meet her biological dad for the first time in 53 years, just in time to celebrate Father’s Day.</p>
<p>Deb Scales, 53, <a class="Link" href="https://abc30.com/10799084/">told KFSN</a> that she was using AncestryDNA to learn about her family's background when she learned her father who recently has passed away wasn't her biological dad. </p>
<p>The service revealed Tim Herrick of California is her birth dad.</p>
<p>Scales says a common match on Ancestry’s website helped solve the puzzle less than two months ago.</p>
<p>"Six weeks ago, my sister called me and said that this young lady from Tennessee said that she was family. Well, I said, 'How is she family?' And my sister said her and Deb are 25%," said Herrick.</p>
<p>"I found out that I had a 25% match of somebody I didn't know. And then that drew her another match of 15% and then under that, another match for 16%, and I was wondering who these people were," said Scales.</p>
<p>Herrick told KFSN that he doesn’t recall much about the year Scales was born other than that he was a bachelor at the time. Now though, he’s married to his wife of 51 years and has three kids, a stepson, seven children, and four great-grandchildren, KFSN reports.</p>
<p>His already large family is now adding one more member. Herrick says Scales will be a great addition.</p>
<p>The pair told KFSN that they quickly realized they have many similar traits and mannerisms, like how they eat and their sense of humor.</p>
<p>To celebrate the newfound family members, relatives from five different states plan to get together this Father’s Day weekend, KFSN reports.</p>
