Henry’s civilian career was in security working as Director of Security for a school district and then as a Security Analyst for Holy Spirit Hospital. After he was medically barred from active duty, he worked in loss prevention for JCPenney, TJ Maxx, and the Caddo Parish School District. Unfortunately, he was medically retired in 2019 due to health reasons related to his kidney failure.

Henry battled diabetes and hypertension, which led to the decline of his kidney function. In 2019, blood testing showed his creatinine levels to be remarkably high and 3 months later was in late-stage 5 kidney failure. He has been reliant on dialysis since 2020, struggles with chronic fatigue, and is also having some vision and digestive issues.

Henry and his wife Kimberly have been married for 25 years and have five children and six grandchildren. Henry loves playing video games, customizing vintage vehicles (has a 2002 Corvette and gave a 1976 Corvette to a friend because he had to focus on simply living daily) and he especially enjoys spending time with his grandkids! Henry is the primary caregiver of the family’s furry friends – two dogs and a cat: they keep him on his toes while his wife travels with work!

Henry and Kimberly started a talent agency in 2016, which needed to be put on hold due to Henry’s health, but with the gift of a new kidney and new life, their dream to resurrect the family business could come true! Kimberly was unable to make it through the donation process because she was not a match, and his family members are unable to donate due to medical conditions that run in their family.
