With a heavy heart, I’m sad to say this is my first mother’s day without mom. Passed away last summer due to complications with injuries from long ago.
The closet picture of have of my mother is that of her with her parents and older siblings for her parents’ 65th wedding anniversary in 2003. That was the last family portrait before she passed the following year. It’s hung above my iMac from which I am typing my GoComics comment. Oh, there are also two pictures of her perched on my fireplace mantel.
I would like characters like Garfields mom, or new characters to appear more frequently. It gets a bit repetitive for the same 3 characters appearing everyday. I still like the comic though
How did Jon manage to get a picture of Garfield’s mother, when it’s established that she’s a stray cat living in that abandoned Italian restaurant? Anyway, still a cute strip, and Happy Mother’s Day out there!

I keep forgetting that John’s mom’s hair is like his.

This must be one of the cutest strips ever! (Or at least on mothers day?)

Even Pooky has a picture of her mother. Garfield’s mother sure was a pretty cat.

Pictures are nice, but the image in my head is better.

Garfield must get the “fat gene” from his paternal side.
