Hill grew up in Brooklyn, New York, where he admired local mafiosos, including Paul Vario, a capo in the Luchesse crime family. In 1955, Hill began to warm up to Paul Vario by running some errands for the mafioso at Vario's meat stores and Varios Nephew Touties Pizza shop on Pine Street and eventually went on to be among Vario's trusted associates. Hill became close friends with Tommy DeSimone, another young up-and-comer in the crime family. Both were mentored by Jimmy "The Gent" Burke, an underworld legend known for being a good earner. The trio of friends were entrusted by Vario to steal trucks, plane heists (including the infamous 1978 Lufthansa Air heist) and killings. Hill was never an actual mafioso himself, but an associate of the Mafia. The Mafia has a strict rule of accepting only full blooded Italians as made guys THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY CHECK OUT ALL OF MY OTHER LISTINGS I WILL WRITE LETTERS IF NEEDED I WAS WITH HENRY FOR A LONG TIME FEEL FREE TO ASK ANY QUESTIONS YOU MIGHT HAVE REGARDING QUESTIONS ABOUT HENRY ILL ANSWER THE BEST I CAN THANKS AGAINHAVE A GREAT DAY HAPPY BIDDING
