Penelope Mona Simpson (née Olsen) (also known as: Penelope Olsen, Martha Stewart, Muddy Mae Suggins and Mona Stevens) (1933-2008) was the mother of Homer Simpson, estranged wife of Abraham Simpson, mother-in-law of Marge Simpson and paternal grandmother of Bart, Lisa and Maggie.
Sometime before or during the 1960s, Mona married Abraham (Abe) Simpson, later giving birth to a son, Homer. Before Homer's birth, she had cheated on Abe with a lifeguard, when a love letter was discovered by a mailman after being frozen. The letter stated that "in his heart he'll know that the baby she carries is his". When Homer discovers the letter in his late thirties/forties, he questions who his father is, although it is later discovered that Abe's DNA was a perfect match for Homer. At some point before Homer's birth, she also found out about Abe Simpson fathering a child with a Carnival Prostitute before he married her, and shortly after Homer was born, made him promise that he never tell Homer about the incident at the carnival, as she wanted Homer to grow up to respect his father. During the 1960s, while Homer was a small child, she became increasingly involved in a hippie movement and political activism. She cites Joe Namath's long hair during Super Bowl III as igniting her beliefs. She takes Homer and Abe to the Woodstock Music Festival, where Homer ends up having been influenced by the hippies. She and other activists, protesting germ research, enter a facility owned by Charles Montgomery Burns, destroying all the biological warfare experiments and in the process curing Clancy Wiggum of asthma. Whilst escaping, she stopped to tend to a fallen Burns, who threatened her with arrest. She leaves her husband and son, with Abe later telling Homer that she had died whilst he was at the movies. Abe even goes as far to point out a grave, telling Homer it is Mona's, although the grave belongs to Walt Whitman. Almost a week prior to Mona's departure, Abe once took Homer on a fishing trip that ended badly, with Homer nearly drowning, but Abe rescues him and takes him back home. This resulted in a brief connection between Mona and Abe, which Homer would later subconsciously misinterpret as a falling-out.
