The nation will remember him as the man who founded Chick-fil-A. But beyond the waffle fries and grammatically-challenged bovines, Mr. Cathy was a man who had a deep and abiding faith in our Lord.

He was a devout Southern Baptist. He taught Sunday school to 13-year-old boys for more than 50 years.

Since 1973, Chick-fil-A has given more than $32 million in financial assistance to workers.
