also has an obituary.

Apparently a funeral service was already held today.

In a statement issued Saturday night, her former husband, Jim Bakker, the evangelist with whom she founded a religious empire in Fort Mill, S.C., said Tammy Faye “lived her life like the song she sang, ‘If Life Hands You a Lemon, Make Lemonade.’ ”

“She is now in Heaven with her mother and grandmother and Jesus Christ, the one who she loves and has served from childbirth,” Bakker said. “That is the comfort I can give to all who loved her.”
