On behalf of my sister Cynthia, my brother Ricky and the entire Fuente Family, as well as the Arturo Fuente Cigar Company, I would like to extend our sincerest gratitudes for the outpouring of love we have received regarding the passing of our patriarch, Carlos A. Fuente, Sr.
My father was not only a pioneer in the cigar industry, but he was also an amazing family man who will be sorely missed by so many. His legacy, however, will remain with us forever as we continue his tradition of hard work, perseverance and dedication.
My father always said, "I never cared about being the largest cigar manufacturer, I only cared about being the best."
Well Dad, you were.
We will miss you dearly and will remember and continue to honor you each day.
Carlos Fuente, Jr.
President
Arturo Fuente Cigar Company
