Tammy Faye Bakker-Messner moving to Kansas Televangelist Tammy Fay Bakker Messner dies BREAKING NEWS
Updated: 13 minutes ago RALEIGH , N.C. - Tammy Faye Messner, who as Tammy Faye Bakker helped her husband, Jim, build a multimillion-dollar evangelism empire and then saw it collapse in disgrace, has died. She was 65.
Messner, who had battled colon cancer since 1996 that more recently spread to her lungs, died at her home Friday, said her booking agent, Joe Spotts. A family service was held Saturday in a private cemetery, where her ashes were interred, he said.
She had frequently spoken about her medical problems, saying she hoped to be an inspiration to others. “Don’t let fear rule your life,” she said. “Live one day at a time, and never be afraid.” But she told well-wishers in a note on her Web site in May that the doctors had stopped trying to treat the cancer.

The thing I noticed as I watched this was the jewelry she was wearing. Seems she could not leave the riches of the world behind. I hope she found Christ though.

She stated that she loves the gay community for helping her when she needed it... she wants to be remembered, she said, for her eyelashes.
I pray she repented before she passed on into Eternity.
