Tammy Faye Messner Has Passed Away
Tammy Faye Messner, March 7, 1942 - July 20, 2007. After a long fought battle with terminal cancer, Tammy Faye has passed away.
From CNN: Tammy Faye Messner, the former televangelist and Christian singer who battled drug addiction and later inoperable cancer, died Friday morning, CNN's Larry King said Saturday night. He said the family had asked him to make the delayed announcement. She was 65.
"She died peacefully," King said.
Messner was a guest on "Larry King Live" on Thursday. She said she couldn't swallow food, and weighed only 65 pounds.
King asked her Thursday if she were "a little scared."
She responded, "A little bit," adding that she mainly worried about her family.
Watching her on CNN's Larry King earlier in the week was very difficult, although her spirit and humor was still shining through as she did her best to make it through the hour interview.
Tammy Faye, you will be missed.

I saw some of the interview and was amazed she was even able to do it. She looked horrible.
