It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of Wendy Gibson, the beloved wife of St. Louis Cardinals Hall of Famer Bob Gibson. Wendy passed away after a courageous battle with illness, leaving behind a legacy of love, support, and devotion to her family.
Wendy’s life was closely intertwined with that of her legendary husband, Bob, who was one of the greatest pitchers in the history of Major League Baseball. Together, they were a power couple, with Wendy providing unwavering support throughout Bob’s career, including his induction into the Baseball Hall of Fame. She was a constant presence by his side, offering both emotional and practical support, allowing Bob to focus on his career while she maintained a strong and loving family unit.
Beyond her role as the wife of a famous athlete, Wendy was a kind, generous, and caring woman. She was known for her warmth and hospitality, always making others feel welcome. Wendy’s ability to connect with people and build meaningful relationships left a lasting impression on everyone who knew her. Her family and friends will remember her not only for her love and dedication but also for her strength, resilience, and grace.
Wendy’s passing has left a deep hole in the hearts of all who knew her, but her legacy will continue to live on in the memories of her kindness, support, and the love she shared with those around her. The family has requested privacy during this difficult time, and memorial services will be held privately.
