Wendy Whitlock was a beloved friend, a passionate member of the Blues Music and Roller Derby communities, and a shining light to everyone who knew her.

As a member of the Capital Area Blues Society (CABS), Wendy served on the Board of Directors and brought her love for blues music to the airwaves as the host of her own radio show on Lansing Community College’s station. Her voice and enthusiasm for the genre brought joy to countless listeners and left a lasting mark on the local music scene.

Wendy’s vibrant spirit also found a home with the Mitten Mavens Roller Derby team, where she served as a non-skating officiant under her spirited derby name, “Meow Kapow.” Her charismatic personality and dedication made her a cherished part of the team, always supporting others and spreading positivity wherever she went.

Wendy’s warmth, radiant smile, and generous heart touched everyone she met, and her presence was truly a gift.
