Who is Claudine Schwartz from The Risk Pool and what is their importance?

Claudine Schwartz is Claude, Jr.'s mother. She isn't particularly happy to be living in Mohawk, either, but Ned likes her. He remains friends with Claud, Jr. partly because she asks him to one day. Claudine badgers her son about his weight. She has blond hair and sallow skin and what Ned calls a low-slung anatomy.
