Tucker Donovan.

Family
Mother's Info
name: Marie Hutchinson, previously Aberson
maiden name: Shipperson
age: 56
occupation: Housewife, presumably
hometown: Pasadena, MD
siblings: Three sisters
dead or alive: Alive
sexuality: Straight, presumably
relationship with mother:
Sam doesn't talk to his mom. She calls maybe three or four times a year; he just grunts into the phone until she finally hangs up. A strong Catholic all her life, Marie was the driving force behind Sam going to Catholic school when he was younger. Then, when he was fourteen, she left her husband and child to run away with the parish's deacon. They later married; Sam has yet to forgive her.
Marie only knows her son is gay because Abel's a douche. Sam's phone rang, but he was stuck under the sink trying to be a man and fix the leak; Abel saw who it was, asked Sam if he wanted him to answer, then after receiving the go-ahead, answered it very professionally: "Sam Aberson's phone, this is Abel Kingly, his longtime boyfriend speaking; how may I help you?"

Sam and Dennis Jr. aren't on bad terms, but they've never been too close. Sam was obviously a twerp when he was a teenager, which was hard for his father to deal with all on his own, and the rift never fully healed. Sam came out to his dad when he was twenty-six; it was an awkward conversation, but Dennis was supportive enough and has welcomed Abel into their small family.
