Bergoglio seems to have had a fatherless upbringing:
From The Dictator Pope (https://isidore.co/calibre/#book_id=6799&panel=book_details):Jorge Mario Bergoglio was born on December 17, 1936, in a suburb of Buenos Aires, the son of a struggling accountant. The signs of strain that can be detected in his family are not merely economic. The adult Jorge was not given to speaking of his parents. After the birth of her fifth child, his mother became temporarily an invalid and had to delegate the upbringing of her children to a woman called Concepción. Jorge celebrated this surrogate as a good woman, yet he admitted that he treated her badly when, years later, she came to him to ask for his help as bishop in Buenos Aires and he sent her away, in his own words, “quickly and in a very bad way.”¹ The incident seems to point to strains which are buried in the past but may provide a clue to Bergoglio’s enigmatic personality.

His dad was born in 1908 and died in 1959 at the age of 51.
His mother was born in 1911 and died in 1981 at the age of 69.
Siblings:
Alberto Bergoglio - born 1942, died 2010 at age 67
Maria Elena Bergoglio - 11 years his junior ~ age 70
Oscar Adrian Bergoglio - born January 30, 1938, died ?? (Seems to be dead, didn't interview him when Jorge became pope)
Marta Reginna Bergoglio - ?? (Seems to be dead, didn't interview her when Jorge became pope)
Seems Jorge has beaten the grim reaper genetically speaking. For all intense and purpose Jorge should be gone here in the next 5 years unless of Our Lord wants to send the Church into the catacombs and let him live for another 10 years.
