Alan White's music went silent in May when died after a brief illness at the age of 72. He passed 11 days after the couple celebrated their 40th anniversary.
"We were just a team and we knew how to be a team together," said Gigi White, wiping tears from her eyes. "We did it better together than either of us could do individually. My love for him is boundless."
After her husband's death, Gigi White's life was forced into a different rhythm, but she found it -- strong and steady here at home.
"We didn't expect this. It has been a real adjustment," said Gigi White, her voice growing quiet. "I have a community around me now...because this is difficult. People ask if I'm going to stay? Of course, I'm going to stay. This is my home. This is where our friends are. This is where I'm supported now."
Now, Gigi White wants to honor her husband, and the community that has given them both so much, with a benefit concert to fight hunger this Sunday, October 2, at Seattle's Paramount Theater. The proceeds will support WhyHunger, a leading anti-hunger nonprofit Alan White supported throughout his life.
Members of YES, Pearl Jam, Heart and more will perform.
