DECATUR, Ga. (AP) — More than two months after Tammy Faye Messner died, her family, friends and fans gathered at a massive church to celebrate "the little lady who lived big."
More than 150 people headed to the cavernous Cathedral at Chapel Hill to celebrate Messner, who as Tammy Faye Bakker helped her husband, Jim, build a multimillion-dollar evangelism empire that collapsed in disgrace.
"Everywhere Tammy went, it was something Tammy gave — that four letter word 'hope,'" said the Rev. Don Thompson. "She was so loving, so passionate. She was so human. She was so real."
