Shary Bobbins - The Simpsons

Maggie Roswell as Shary Bobbins on The Simpsons.

[@blairbrown4812]

She was practically the perfect nanny for The Simpsons and they still broke her spirit and destroyed her will to live.

[@josephmarrison4606]

Sad. She was my favourite character. I would hope for her to come back to life in a future episode of the cartoon.
