“The widow she cried over me, and called me a poor lost lamb, and she called me a lot of other names, too, but she never meant no harm by it.”
“She grabbed me and hugged me tight; and then gripped me by both hands and shook and shook; and the tears come in her eyes, and run down over; and she couldn't seem to hug and shake enough, and kept saying, "You don't look as much like your mother as I reckoned you would; but law sakes, I don't care for that, I'm so glad to see you! Dear, dear, it does seem like I could eat you up! Children, it's your cousin Tom!—tell him howdy.”
"Yes, he's got a father, but you can't never find him these days. He used to lay drunk with the hogs in the tanyard, but he hain't been seen in these parts for a year or more."

Pap even abuses Huck even though they are blood related and should be loving each other every day. Just like how Miss Watson takes care of Huck every day.
Huck has no family that he loves. He thinks Miss Watson as the closest to family he has.
The judge and the widow both take the responsibility of being Huck’s guardian.
“ ’Don't you give me none o' your lip,’ says he. ‘You've put on considerable...
