Penny Banner
One of the most decorated women in the history of professional wrestling. Her accolades have included being the first recipient of the CAC's Art Abrams Lifetime Achievement Award, being inducted into the Pro Wrestling Hall of Fame in New York and she will be the first woman inducted to the George Tragos/Lou Thesz Professional Wrestling Hall of Fame in Waterloo in 2008.
Banner dated Elvis Presley from 1956 to late 1958. She was married to Johnny Weaver for 35 years before divorcing him in 1994. She had one child, a daughter named Wendi. You may remember Johnny Weaver's Ten Bell earlier this year. 
I know they had been divorced for some time, but it is just odd how married people die so close together sometimes. My heart goes out to Wendi losing both parents in such a short time.
