Joni Lamb, the founder of the Daystar Television Network, passed away on May 7, 2023, at the age of 65. She had been facing significant health challenges, which were worsened by a recent back injury. Born in 1960 in Colleyville, Texas, Lamb co-founded the Daystar Television Network in 1993 with her husband, Marcus Lamb, who died in November 2021 due to COVID-19. The network became one of the largest Christian broadcasting platforms, reportedly earning around $28 million from airtime and donations by the 2000s. Following her death, Daystar released a heartfelt statement honoring her legacy and impact on millions. Joni is survived by her three children and her husband, Doug Weiss, whom she married earlier in 2023. Her recent social media activity, including posts urging followers to surrender their battles to God, has raised questions and criticisms regarding the management of her account after her passing.
