Henry White

Henry White (October 8, 1934 - May 31, 2021) was an American auto mechanic, hair dresser, exorcist and puppeteer from Boston.

Early Life
Henry was born on October 8, 1934 in Boston to Tia Bennett, a message therapist, and William White, a photographer. He spent time with most of his friends and family; he shared a rather nonexistent relationship with his step-parents.

White played High School baseball during his freshmen and sophomore years. He was cut from the team during his junior year in 1950 for performance reasons.

Career
In 1955, White was expelled from University due to poor grades. He attempted to appeal the expulsion, but to no avail. He eventually got over it when he began working as an apprentice auto mechanic for Boston Motors. He was promoted to auto mechanic in 1957.

In 1995, after working for Boston Motors for forty years, White was terminated before he could decide when to retire, much to the outrage of his family. Henry played it cool, however, and started working for Pat's Auto Emporium.

Other Jobs
After his career as an auto mechanic ended, White worked three other jobs to keep providing for his family as much as he could:

- Hair Dresser (2009 - 2012)

- Exorcist (2014 - 2015)

- Puppeteer (2016 - 2018)

Midnight Train Robbery
In 2014, at age 80, White robbed a midnight Northern Bishop Line train that was being illegally used by not only regular criminals, but also corrupt government officials. White was awarded for his heroism. He would spend the money on a few more houses and cars so he wouldn't be seen as a greedy rich man.

Personal Life
White met Misty Johnson, a jewelry salesperson, when they were both ten years old. After spending a year as good friends, they started dating in 1945. They married in 1954 upon their twentieth birthdays after a year of engagement, staying together until Henry's death. Their daughter, Hilliary, was born in 1960. They also had two grandchildren, Jesse Bell (born 1995) and Holly Taylor (born 1999).

Legal Issues
In 2008, White was pulled over under the suspicion of driving under the influence. Henry confessed and was arrested. Despite pleading not guilty, White was convicted of DUI and sentenced to one year in prison. He was fired from Pat's Auto Emporium. Ten years later, in 2018, he was convicted of DUI again, costing him his job as a Puppeteer at Cloud Nine Studios and serving two years in prison.

In 2012, White attempted to pickpocket a pickpocket, but he got the attention of a nearby cop. White was arrested, tried and convicted of larceny and sentenced to two years in jail. He was sacked from his job as a hairdresser at Sapphire Salon & Spa. This also nearly cost him his marriage, but Henry was able to convince Misty to stay with him.

Altogether, White had spent five years in prison.

Health Issues and Death
White suffered from alchohol addiction for many years. He was only able to recover from approximately one or two addictions through luxury rehab.

On May 31, 2021, White died of natural causes, aged 86. Only his wife refused to go to his funeral. Henry is survived by his wife, daughter, two grandchildren and his nieces and nephews. His net worth was nearly $32 million.
