William Allen White, Jr. died on November 29, 2016 in Annapolis, MD. He had just celebrated his 90th birthday with friends and family in September. Born on September 29, 1926 in Washington, DC to the late William Allen White, Sr. and Mary Agnes Beckett White, William graduated from Anacostia High School and attended college in Florida prior to serving in the United States Army. 
Upon returning to the States, he began working at Doctor’s Hospital where he met Dorothy Ann Smith, a registered nurse. They married and raised their family of six children in Prince George’s County, MD. 
He was proud and spoke fondly of his lifetime career with the Local 99 Union of Operating Engineers. His passion for fishing and crabbing lead him to retire in Bozman, MD where he enjoyed the peacefulness of water views from his porch. Many will remember his special culinary skills, as he enjoyed baking cheesecakes and making eggnog for the holidays. William was an avid sports fan and enjoyed watching the Washington Capitals, Washington Nationals, Baltimore Orioles, Green Bay Packers and Washington Redskins.
He was preceded in death by his wife, Dorothy A. White and his son in law, Joseph Rubenstahl. William is survived by his children, Chaz ( Kelly) White, Jim (Kathy) White, Marjean (Ray) Cefaratti, Jo Ann Rubenstahl, Gail Romine, and Kyle (Terry) White; his grandchildren, Chris (Lindi) Romine, Jenni (Joe) Manson, Allen (Crystal) Romine, Jim Cefaratti, Calvin White, Rick Cefaratti, Jessica, John Kyle and Ryan White, Diane Cefaratti, Tyler White, Chad Knodle, Krystal, Kayla and Karley White and his great grandchildren, Peyton and Jackson Romine, Lucas and Wyatt Manson.
