In mourning.
In mourning.

Donald A. Perry, Chick-fil-A’s vice-president of public relations, has died. The cause was a heart attack. Much could be said and speculated, considering the media mayhem surrounding the company over the last few days, but at this point the only appropriate reaction is to send condolences to the family. Chick-fil-A has issued a statement …

We are saddened to report the news to you that our dear friend Don Perry, vice president of public relations, passed away suddenly this morning.

Don was a member of our Chick-fil-A family for nearly 29 years. For many of you in the media, he was the spokesperson for Chick-fil-A. He was a well-respected and well-liked media executive in the Atlanta and University of Georgia communities, and we will all miss him.

Our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
