Founding one of the most iconic products in history would be more than enough to cement a legacy for most, but this innovative entrepreneur and deeply religious and devoted family man sought to ensure his success would uplift millions, in his beloved city of Atlanta and far beyond, leaving a legacy long after he was gone.
