10 Members Of The Simpsons Family You Forgot Existed

3. Tyrone Simpson

The cynical older brother of Abe (Grandpa) Simpson, Tyrone Simpson shows that bitterness is a family trait when it comes to getting old in the Simpson family. The family visits him on his birthday in Season 18's Catch 'Em If You Can, only to have him exclaim "Why won't I die?" as the family sings him Happy Birthday. Good news for Tyrone - there's a chance he did die later in the episode, as his home town of Dayton, Ohio was ravaged by a tornado. That means Homer isn't the only Simpson to have tangled with a major storm. Tyrone's death was never confirmed, however, so there's a chance Abe's bitter older brother could turn up in future episodes.
