“Goofy “I should have a dead wife.”
Some fans point out that Goofy He prefers not to talk about his wife due to a problem of infidelity. They claim that Mrs. Goof ran off with someone else, usually using this milkman incident and her mistaken kiss as an argument. Run to 1:33!

Goof Troop gives some references from other family members to Goofy: a brother and a niece (Deebie), who appears occasionally in the series, but is also not the biggest fan of her uncle.
It is also known that Goofy He has only one brother and that his grandfather was the Captain Goof-Beard. Throughout multiple short films, Goofy makes mention of several distant relatives… all dead among great-great-grandparents, great-uncles, uncles, etc. He is actually a VERY lonely character.
In A Goofy Movie, The protagonist mentions his father, apparently already deceased for talking about him in the past tense and for appearing so nostalgic when he talks about him with Max.
«User: I just watched ‘A Goofy Movie’ for the first time in 20 years and I identified more with Goofy than with Max (…)
