From Wikipedia:

Samuel Truett Cathy (March 14, 1921 – September 8, 2014) was an American businessman, investor, author, and philanthropist. He founded the fast food restaurant chain Chick-fil-A in 1946.

Cathy was a member of the First Baptist Church in Jonesboro, Georgia, and taught Sunday School there for more than 50 years. He said that the Bible is his guide-book for life.[7] Due to his strong religious beliefs, all of the company’s locations, whether company-owned or franchised, are closed on Sundays to allow its employees to attend church and spend time with their families.[8] This policy began when Cathy was working six days a week, multiple shifts. He decided to close on Sundays.[7]
