"While I may not understand why God called her home, I know that it's all part of God's plan, " Bergey wrote. "I can have peace that she has no more pain."

Bergey worked for the company for nearly eight years, starting at the age of 16 at the grand opening of the Lansdale location, Chick-fil-A Lansdale owner Dawn Montgomery Friel wrote on Facebook.

"Your laughter and coaching will forever echo in our walls. So many good times, times that challenged us, goals hit, innovation, milestones, and celebrations over the years," she wrote. "Blessed to have known you."
