THE world’s longest-serving KFC worker, racking up 47 years, has died aged 74.
Tributes were paid to Pauline Richards, known as “Miss KFC”;, after she succumbed to cancer.
She started at the branch in Taunton, , in 1978, and estimated serving six million chicken drumsticks over the next five decades.
Pauline started as a cleaner, going on to work on the tills and became a manager.
She saw both her daughter and grandson getting there.
Kathryn York, chief people officer at KFC, had called her a “an important role model in her local community.”;
This year, Pauline said: “I have no plans to retire, it all depends what my body says.”;
She added: “A lot of people on a night out come in looking for me.
“I go to a pub down the road and I see them down there.
“I haven’t bought a drink in the last two years.
After her death, Taunton Town Council said: “Our thoughts are with her family and all those who knew and loved her.”;
