laficion Posted April 17, 2010 Share Posted April 17, 2010 Just got the news of Don Alejandro Robaina's death. Rest in Peace Very sad news indeed, may he rest in peace. A few very close friends of mine and cigar buddy just came back from a visit to his farm on the 15th of March and told me that he was looking quit ill , so, It was, in a way, expected. He will be missed by all of us. A great man has passed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackFriar Posted April 18, 2010 Share Posted April 18, 2010 There was a posting awhile back on the forum, one of the members has the quote in their signature block. Anyhow, Don Alejandro must have given one of the best quotes in history. "There are some people who are so poor that the only thing they save is money." Rest in Peace Sir. God broke the mold when they made you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
