I was the third of four children born to Robert and Wanda Gluck. I married Sharlene (Fuller) in 1970. We had David and Christina Gluck. In turn David had three children: Sheena, Sean, and Allie; and Christina had two children David and Tony. My son David is now single and Christina is married to Jeff Avila.

Ok now, that's 2 kids, a son-in-law and 5 grandkids.

I became a widower on May 12, 2007. My wife of 37 years, Sharlene, passed away the day before Mother's Day.

After living alone for a couple of years I found a new friend. In March 2011 I married Farima Julich Gluck. She has five children, Rochelle, Nathan, John, Mary Rose, and Paul.

So now we're at 2 kids, a son-in-law, 5 grandkids, 1 wife, and 5 step-children.

I also have a little Pomeranian dog named Buddy. Farima's dog Cocoa and her cat Miss Kitty lived in our home for a while after we moved in together. But they passed away in 2012. They are missed very much.

So that's 2 kids, a son-in-law, 5 grandkids, 1 wife, 5 stepchildren, and a dog.

Heaven forbid that it all be this simple though. It gets a little more interesting when you consider some of the ages of the people involved and try to put together their relationship to each other. Farima is a month younger than my son David. That means David is older than his step-mom, and has a step-brother that is 8 years old. And one of my step-daughters is 10. She has a step-sister who is almost 40 years old.
