Founder Of Golden Corral Restaurants Dies

[MaxDepth]

RALEIGH, N.C. -- A restaurant pioneer has died.
William Foster Carl passed away at his Raleigh home over the weekend.
The 63-year-old and a friend opened Golden Corral in Fayetteville in 1972.
The chain now has almost 500 restaurants in 39 states.
There is no word on what caused Carl's death.



My question: will they have a sneeze guard above the casket for the viewing?
:Q

Golden Corral = humongous buffet restaurants frequently patronized by old people, fat people, and people wanting meats/vegetables/bakery goods after church

If you like your food bland and deep-fried, then yes. To each his own, of course.
