R.I.P. Marge Groening

Margaret "Marge" Groening, mother of The Simpson's creater Matt Groening, and the inspiration for the matriarch Marge Simpson has passed away. She was 94. Matt drew on much of his real life experience when creating the iconic cartoon family. His mother and his father Homer Groening were high school sweethearts. Homer passed away in 1996. Margaret also had three daughters, Lisa, Maggie, and she was predeceased by Patty in January 2013. Our thoughts and prayers are with Marge's friends and family.
