Colonel Sanders

Sanders_sketch

Harland David Sanders (1890-1980), Hugh Harris Lodge 938, Corbin, Kentucky, was founder of the Kentucky Fried Chicken franchises.  He became so much a part of the fabric of his home state of Kentucky that when he died his body lay in state in the rotunda of the Kentucky State Capitol and he was honored with a bust in the same building.  Both are distinctions rarely bestowed on private citizens.
