Cecil J. Hernandez
Cecil J. Hernandez, a native Coloradan, vowed at an early age that he would start his own business to break out of the lowly means from which he grew up. After dropping out of school in the 9th grade, Hernandez took a list of jobs until he enlisted in the Navy for two years. Afterwards, Hernandez returned home to Denver and began the humble beginnings of Mastercraft Cabinets, Inc. The company grew steadily until he was able to hire employees and upgrade to his own building. Over the years, Mastercraft became one of the largest Hispanic businesses in the Denver Metro Area.
Outside of work, Hernandez was an involved community member and family man. He was on the board of the Natural History Museum, The Denver Metro Chamber of Commerce and the Colorado National Bank, but above all he was a dedicated husband and father.
