His four-year battle is over after his heart attack. Henry's wife Josie of 35 years told me he passed peacefully. Josie is an angel who took such great care of him all of these difficult years. "Henry was a one-of-a-kind man. He lived life to the fullest and touched everyone he met both with his music and his spirit. He was my brother in all ways. My compadre in Wings and best friend since. "I'm deeply saddened by the news but relieved that his suffering is over. Please keep Josie and his son Jessie in your thoughts during these days to come. "RIP my dear friend. You've earned it. Take your special gift to the other side. You will be missed." Read Paul McCartney's tribute here. Classic Rock Magazine is an official news provider for antiMusic.com.
