I just E-mailed Comedy Central and asked if the rumors are true. If they answer, I'll post their response here.
I asked a friend I know who works over at Disney feature animation (considerring the amount of voicework Mary Kay has done for them) just to see if anything's been said on the Disney grapevine, and here's his reply:
"I think it's a good policy to treat everything on the internet as hearsay until an actual, reliable news source can be found.
In this case I haven't heard anything about her death. Neither has cnn.com (one of the few electronic sources I would put any stock in.) Then again, she may not have been a big enough celebrity to merit a national news story.
A random search revealed a few webs sites listing referring to a date of death as November of this year. Obviously take this for whatever you think it's worth. Probably about as unreliable as the message boards your were reading.
Here's a few that I noted:

Sorry I can't shed any more light on it... but artists rarely have contact with the voice talent in animation."
Grrrrr. Payne Stewart, who I'd never heard of before his plane crashed, gets hours and hours of air time. But a woman who had a body of work like Mary Kay's (and I'm not just talking South Park) can barely get confirmation. A *golfer* for pete's sake...sheesh.

BTW, I thought "Female Body Part" was kinda funny.
I know...a lot of us on the palace and on aol were talking about this over the weekend (well, Sunday/Monday) and were disgusted, especially considering all the searching we did on the internet and all we found out.
what voices did she do???
Virtually all the female cast members: Wendy, Ms Cartman, Kyle's mother, Kenny's mother, school principal, mayor, Ms Crabtree. These are some at least.
