Nassau, Bahamas - The following
is a Statement by Fred Mitchell,  Minister of Foreign Affairs and Immigration, for the Commonwealth of The Bahamas:

It is with sadness that I note the passing of Manuel Cutillas, the Dean of the Honorary Consular Corp of The Bahamas.  Mr. Cutillas was the Honorary Consul for Mexico at his passing.  

Mr. Cutillas was an adopted son of The Bahamas, having come to this country after the revolution in Cuba as a part of the Bacardi factory and later its head. He was also Chair of the Lyford Cay Foundation which was responsible for  scores of scholarships to deserving young Bahamians.

He loved this country.

On behalf of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the wider government, I extend condolences to his wife and family on his passing.
