Mr. Woodson

Mr. Woodson was John Winchester's boss.

Overview
After John returned from the Vietnam War and came to Lawrence, he began working as a mechanic, under Mr. Woodson. In 1978, the angel Anna Milton travels to the past in hopes of killing John and Mary Winchester, in order to prevent the birth of their future children and thus the Apocalypse.

Anna kills Mr. Woodson and mimics his voice while calling John, pretending to consider firing John but agrees to let John come speak to him about it. This is simply a ruse so Anna can lure John to her.

John arrives at his work place and finds Mr. Woodson's corpse on the floor. Suddenly, Anna attacks him, but he is saved by the arrival of Mary and his time-traveled sons, also from the future.

It is unknown if Mr. Woodson was ever resurrected by Michael, in order to explain his death. Presumably, his death led to the end of John's career as a mechanic, as he later owned a garage with Mike Guenther.
