NASHVILLE â Tammy Wynette died of natural causes, a medical examiner has ruled. Davidson County medical examiner Bruce Levy made the announcement Tuesday, more than three years after the 55-year-old singer was found dead by her husband, George Richey, at their Nashville mansion. No autopsy was conducted when Wynette was found dead on April 6, 1998.
Tammy once said: I spent 15 minutes writing [Stand by Your Man], and a lifetime defending it. She was born Virginia Wynette Pugh on May 5, 1942, on her grandfather's cotton farm in Itawamba County, Mississippi. Tammy picked cotton as a child, and as a young woman worked as a waitress, a doctor's receptionist, a barmaid and a shoe factory worker.
