September 21, 2023, Johnny Ray White (Peanut), 71, born in Houston, TX passed away peacefully in his sleep in Navasota TX. Being cared for in his final days by his loving wife of 47 years, Barbara (Sue) Bailey White. Early that morning, the clouds lifted and before the Texas sun could shine again, angels ushered him to heaven.

Johnny and Barbara Sue married in 1976 and for twelve years resided in the Houston area. When their first born, Krisha was 2 years old, Johnny and Barbara started their own dental lab, Johnny making dentures as a Dental Lab Technician, (A trade he learned in the Navy) and Barbara Sue was his assistant. During that time they had another child, Brent Shelton. In 1989, with their two children Krisha and Brent in tow, they moved to Brenham, Texas. Purchasing 25 acres on a Brenham hill which they called home for many years. They homeschooled the kids and watched many firework’s shows every fourth of July from atop that hill, by the campfire as a family. 

Born on July 29, 1952, in Houston TX, Johnny was the oldest of four children. His early jobs, while in school, included working as a shoe shine boy and at a gas station. He worked for a carpenter that trained him in a later trade of woodworking and building houses and fixing everything. In 1971, he graduated from MacArthur High School and went on to serve his country in the U.S. Navy, in the Vietnam war, from 1972 to 1976 where he graduated from Dental Technician School.

In a word, Johnny was witty, he loved to make people laugh. He was always pulling fun pranks on people and sometimes would wait for years to get you back if you played one on him, giving you PTSD, never knowing when he might strike. He was thrifty and a real-life MacGyver, always finding a way to repurpose something to 

use it again in another way. He would and could fix practically everything. He was creative and played banjo and guitar. He could write, draw, do wood-working and created art of all kinds. Johnny was driven to understand the intricacies of each part, machine, movement, and to master the requisite tool(s) for each task. Whatever he did, he was all in! No request or challenge was too big; whatever you asked of him he would do it. His hobbies included fishing, woodworking and spending time with his family.
