Pizza Hut Co-founder Frank Carney dies from pneumonia aged 82

Frank Carney, who started Pizza Hut in the US city of Wichita in 1958 with his brother Dan, died from pneumonia on Wednesday at the age of 82. Carney had recently recovered from COVID-19 but had Alzheimer's disease for more than a decade, and pneumonia is common in Alzheimer's patients. PepsiCo bought Pizza Hut for $300 million in 1977.
