I loved you as woke each morning in Boston.

Your "Hospital, Hospital" each day became my mantra in my emerging radio career.

I never met you, Jeff, but then that's my fault.

Rest in peace, my friend.

Stan Roberts

Please accept my deepest sympathies.

I am so sorry to hear that Jess Cain passed away. I listened to Jess Cain in the mornings on WHDH for many years as a kid growing up in Newton, MA in the 1960s and 70s. In those years, the Boston air waves had real radio personalities. Among his peers, Jess Cain was unique. I will always remember his sophistication and gentle humor. Long after having moved to California, Jess Cain lives on in my memory. It seems fitting that he passed away on Valentine's Day. He had a love affair with New England, and vice versa. He was like an old friend to his many fans. My condolensces to the Cain family.

Jess was a fixture on our radio dial for many years. We listened to him every morning on the drive in to school. We felt like we knew him personally. My kids used to call for the birthday segment and were on live radio with Jess a couple of times. Jess' sense of humor was priceless. My children are grown and are parents now and will always have fond memories of Jess because he made them smile at the start of each school day! Our deepest sympathy to Jess' family. He was a special person!

I just heard of Jess's passing. You always think that a man of his character could never die....I knew Jess when I worked with WHDH doing traffic reports (WHDH Skyway Patrol) back in the 80's. I was new on the block and he made me feel like part of the team....God bless you and your family Jess.
