All good guesses. 66 and 38 would put his dad at 104.

Lbaker, I missed the date on that.

Eight years to retirement! Just waiting!

His Dad was 99 in 2021 so in 2026, he would be 104

your the 6th of your siblings, 63 people were injured in the Ddaeyeonggak Hotel fire you posted about, and you have 8 siblings.

You're 66, you were born in March (8th?), or perhaps i'm reading too much into one of your other riddles. Or, you were born in August (3rd)?

You're 66, born in March or on the 3rd of a month, and this is your 8th riddle Karma?

Q,

This is taking me down a path I don't wanna visit.

I just read a post of yours that you've lost 8 family members to cancer.

I'm gonna assume the riddle is a happier answer and not even guess on that. I'm sorry for all that Q, your Mom as well.

Or, to make it simpler: How old is Q/12131's dad/father/Bo/Mr.T? (Answer: Q's age[66] added to the age gap[38] = 104)

BINGO! WINNER WINNER CHICKEN DINNER! Congratulations, Mr. Baker. That's amazing!

Clues:
1. Of all the fields mentioned/excluded, mathematics was left out on purpose. That means math is involved.
2. "Add/added/additional" are peppered throughout the OP.
3. 8647 is a hint to split the group in two: 66 38
4. Add 66 and 38 = 104. My age and Dad's age can be deduced from at least 9 previous posts of mine, 4 of them were Dad's BD threads (99, 100, 101 and 102).
5. What the heck does family values have anything to do with this math problem? They are just numerical values of Q's family.

Thanks, everyone, for playing and digging through so many posts. I really appreciate it. Btw, reply number one by cmparrish came out of left field and knocked my socks off. I learned of my wife's passing on SIGforum.

I have no idea how he arrived at that, because I have never mentioned anything about my wife's medical issues, let alone her passing. So, to paraphrase Mark Twain, the report of Mrs. Q's passing is greatly exaggerated.

I just reread the list twice and I’m still having trouble believing mathematics wasn’t listed. I swear it was.

Well done, sir. I burned a little time on “family values” all in good fun of course.

I was like wait a minute I don’t remember this so I’m sure you were really shocked. Nice to hear she is alive and well.

I guess AI was pulling that data from a parallel universe. It sounded quite reasonable and gave quite the convincing explanation, which is why I went with it. Oh well, congrats to Mr. Baker!
