Henry Johnson, Sr., passed away peacefully at his home in Saratoga Springs, NY, at the age of 92 with his family by his side. Born in Barnstable, MA, he was the oldest son of Finnish cranberry farmers from Cape Cod. Henry lived a very rich and full life. With an Engineering degree from Northeastern University in Boston, his 35-year career at General Electric began in Everett, MA, and ended as Plant Manager in Portland, ME. He met the love of his life, Alexandra (Sandy) at GE in Philadelphia, PA.
Henry enjoyed sports throughout his life. He was a prolific knuckleball pitcher as a youth in the Cape Cod Baseball League and a cagey paddleball opponent at GE for anyone willing to take him on. Henry and Sandy became involved in racing harness horses in the 1960’s. Over the next 40 years, Henry owned, bred, trained, and drove Standardbreds throughout the northeast.
