Andrea Gibson, a renowned poet and performance artist, passed away at the age of 49 after a four-year struggle with terminal ovarian cancer. Their death was confirmed by their wife, Megan Falley, and occurred at their home in Boulder, Colorado, surrounded by family and friends. Gibson's life and battle with cancer are documented in the film "Come See Me in the Good Light," which showcases their love story. Tributes emphasize how Gibson's poetry profoundly impacted many, particularly within the LGBTQ+ community and among those facing terminal illnesses.
"Andrea Gibson died in their home (in Boulder, Colorado) surrounded by their wife, Meg, four ex-girlfriends, their mother and father, dozens of friends, and their three beloved dogs."
"Dying is the opposite of leaving. When I left my body, I did not go away. That portal of light was not a portal to elsewhere, but a portal to here. I am more here than I ever was before."
