Betsy Donovan

Betsy Donovan was Clyde Donovan's mother and Roger Donovan's wife. She was of Dutch ancestry and according to Clyde, she apparently had a very good recipe for lemon bars. She died in "Reverse Cowgirl" after Clyde left the toilet seat up. However, she was later seen alive in the episodes "Jewpacabra" and "You're Not Yelping", which is likely a continuity error.
She died tragically after Clyde, yet again failed to put the toilet seat down in "Reverse Cowgirl".
Please visit her article on the South Park Archives for more information.
== Appearance ==
She had dark brown hair, just like Clyde and her husband. She wore a long-sleeved white top with a light brown overdress, a red belt, a gold belt buckle, and pearl earrings.
== Personality ==
In her earlier appearances, he was mostly portrayed as a calm and kind woman, often seen caring for her son Clyde and reminding him to do his chores and interacting with the other parents. 
She seems to care a lot about Clyde as she was terrified of him being abducted, crying when she let him go, coming to his aid when she thinks he's in distress and taking him to the doctor in "Lice Capades". She can get annoyed with him, seemingly whenever he doesn't listen. Such as in "Mysterion Rises" when she told Clyde to take the trash out that morning, but Clyde procrastinated to play "Super Hero" with his friends, so she had to remind for the second while knocking on his bedroom door. In "Lice Capades", she took Clyde to the doctor to take care of his lice problem. When a little girl with an ear infection asked Clyde what he was seeing the doctor for, instead of saying he has lice, he replies "I have... AIDS" (Because he was so humiliated by having Lice). Betsy is shocked and looks at Clyde with an angry expression thinking that he lied to her.
She seemed to like children, as she took everyone in Clyde's class to Casa Bonita in "You Have 0 Friends".
In "Reverse Cowgirl", it was revealed that she can be hard on others and tends to become confrontational when she felt like she's being wronged. This comes from Clyde leaving the toilet seat up, despite her repeated orders for him to put it down.
