Aunt Hortense (surname possibly Simpson or Olsen) (1911-1996) was an aunt of Homer Simpson, as well as the great-aunt of Bart, Lisa, and Maggie Simpson. She appeared when Bart died, calling her "Aunt Hortense".
Hortense is mentioned in "Bart the Fink" as having recently died, and the Simpson family are her only heirs, inheriting $100 each, with the rest being left to advice columnist Ann Landers, much to Homer's ire.
