    On October 1st, Tim Wakefield succumbed to complications from a brain tumor. The ex-US baseball star, who played as a pitcher for the Boston Red Sox until 2012, was 57 years old. The team announced the athlete's death on the X platform.

    “It is with deep sadness that we announce that our beloved mother, daughter, sister, niece and aunt Stacy passed away today at her home in Massachusetts,” the family's statement shared on X said. While Tim Wakefield was battling a brain tumor, Stacy was also suffering from cancer.

    “She was surrounded by her family and dear friends, as well as her wonderful caregivers and nurses,” the family continued. “The loss is unimaginable, especially after losing Tim almost five months ago. Our hearts are beyond broken.”

    Tim was “the love of her life”
