Trudy is the daughter of Truett and Jeannette Cathy, and like her father, she is a beloved leader, communicator, and entrepreneur. When she was just 19 years old, Trudy began working for the family business. She became an operator of a new Chick-fil-A restaurant in Birmingham, Alabama - making her the youngest Operator at that time. Though she had just finished her freshman year at Samford University, Truett believed in his daughter, and handed her the keys. She took a year off from school to run the restaurant and, in that time, hired fellow Samford student, John White. They served for 20 years with the International Mission Board; 10 of those years as missionaries in Brazil where they focused on church planting and helping children in need. That's what brings me real joy.
