Dr Kain operated on my Ruptured Achilles free of charge because I didn't have insurance. I would have been a cripple if he hadn't. I just learned of his death 15 years after he passed. I've been looking for him for years to thank him. There are no words. God rest his Soul. Thank you Doctor. You made such a big impact on my life.

My wife and I just learned of your loss, and add our belated sympathies. Tom was always a reliable and friendly face, an advocate for his patients.

Dear Kain Family: We are so very sorry to hear of your loss and will miss Dr. Kain tremendously. My mother has arterial disease and had a few wounds that would not heal. There was a time that we were seeing Dr. Kain once a week and he made us feel confident that he would help and certainly did mentally and physically. We will never forget him or how very kind he was. He always had a smile and a kind word to say. Our thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Warmest regards, Rose Roberts and Rose Clifton

Dear Kain Family,
It is with deep sadness that I learn of your loss. I met Dr. Kain about 20 years ago when he treated my mother. He quickly became her favorite doctor. His caring, treatment and bedside manner made a patient with many complications feel at ease and assured of recovery. I would run into him from time to time, and he never forgot her and always asked how mom was. He even stoped to check in on her and say hello when she was back in the hospital for other issues in later years. He was a true gentle man, healer and professional. He will be sadly missed. My prayers are with you all.
With deepest sympathy,

Dear Kain Family,
I am sorry for this difficult time in your lives. I had the pleasure of working with Dr. Kain at the Mercy Fitzgerald Wound Center for a few years. I learned a lot from him as he always was willing to take the time to talk. I enjoyed his energy for medicine and admired his caring way with his patients. I hope to bring as much compassion to my patients over the years as he did. I will certainly miss our many conversations about sports, especially the Phillies, as he was equally passionate about them as his patients.

Dear Kain Family:
I was so sorry to learn about your tremendous loss. I fondly recall your father's kind, encouraging, and light-hearted presence at many swim meets. As a kid, I felt you were fortunate to have him as a father. God bless you.

32 some years ago, I was a boy of about 9 years old. I broke my leg and Dr Kain was my doctor. I will never, ever forget him, he was so nice and I felt safe and in good hands when he treated me. He was a great man and my heartfelt condolences and prayers go out to his family.

You are all in my thoughts and prayers during this difficult time. Not only did I and my mom (Maureen Kampes) have the privilege of working with Dr. Kain at Fitzgerald Mercy Hospital but we always used to joke that Tom Kain was our “family orthopedist” as everyone in the family had broken an ankle or had some other orthopedic ailment at some point. Dr. Kain was an amazing surgeon and caring physician and will never be forgotten!

You are all in my thoughts and prayers. I had the privilege of working with Tom at the Wound Care Center at Island Ave. when it first opened. He was always so dedicated to his work and all the patients and so interested in learning more and doing the best daily. He was a great inspiration to us all.
I brought many family members to him for different problems and he always gave supurb care!! He was unique in so many ways and it is a great loss to hear about his passing. You should all be proud of him!!!
Love and prayers,
Kathy Lafferty.

My deepest sympathy to the Kain Family. I did not know Dr. Kain but; if his son Pat is any indicator of who he was; than he truly was a very special person. My thoughts and prayers go out to you all.

Dear Kain family,
Dr. Kain was a very special guy. We spent alot of time during my early teen and high school years traveling the state for hockey. He was part of that whole wonderful childhood hockey experience, which I will never forget. He loved watching Dan and I play and talking about the games. He will be missed greatly. My deepest sympathies to the family.

Dear Mary, Aileen, Pat, Dan, Kathleen, and Anne,
Know of my prayers for Tom and everyone who loves him.
Your Dad always loved you so much; he was so proud of you! He was such a good Dad- Dan, do you remember when he came into our class-room at Wayne Presbyterian Nursery and would put casts on our dolls' arms and legs?! The kids loved it!
I hope that all of the special memories of him help you get through these difficult days and times. May God's love sustain you.
Hugs and Prayers,
