I don't know much about this lady and her husband, but I have heard of them.
Didn't they get done for fraud or embezzlement or something like that ????
I remember they hit the news some years ago down here in Aussieland.

Wom, I found a link that explains it all better than I can.

I don't know how much of a part of it all, if any, Tammy Faye played. I never watched their show and didn't care for the way they portrayed Christianity when they were on television. To me Tammy Faye is much more likable now than she ever was then.

Hmmmmm...that was an interesting read.
It all sort of came back to me when I read that. I do remember it all now.
Thanks Pam,

I think the world of Tammy Faye. She has so much of my respect! I look up to her. I think she is an amazing person. I really gained so much respect for her when she was on the reality show Surreal Life. She was such a down to earth person & treated everyone equal. I admire her faith in God. I admire everything about her. She is truely a hero in my eyes.

She is so strong and courageous. I mean just because your sick doesn't mean your going to stop your favorite things (hers in putting on her makeup). I have an outstanding amount of respect for this lady. I hate to hear that she is in so much pain. I really hope God has a miracle for this lady to keep her around on Earth alot longer.. but only God knows whats right for her.. so He will make the best decision.

IN the interview, Larry asked her if she had any regrets. She didn't really, she said. He asked about the PTL time - that was with all the fraud and stuff...

She said it was a really awful/terrible time. But I think she stays positive by not dwelling on what is done and over with.

I had never paid much attention to her over the years - but I watched the whole hour. Her eyes and smile were still bright - I thought they would look ghoulish if she laughed. But no. And she was chipper about having gained 5 lbs since the previous interview.

God bless her.
