Not sure what to say?

Our thoughts and prayers go out to the Cain Family. I had Mr. Cain for 8th grade Geography at the Wickford Jr. High School, the only Jr. High in N.K. at that time. Mr. Cain always captured our attention, made learning so much fun, and gave us tricks for learning all the geographical regions of the country that I have never forgotten! For example, "the western part of the U.S. is high, dry, and scenic like a martini!" We had to do lengthy, research papers and he taught us how to pace our...

i just heard of frank's passing and wanted to send my deepest sympathies to his family. i used to wait on him all the time at the bar olive garden, we would talk about movies, his florida trips, and always have a few laughs....he was a great person will be missed

My brother and I had Mr. Cain as our teacher in 8th grade in the 1980's. What fond memories we have! He made 8th grade fun. He is among only a few very inspiring educators we encountered during our years in the N. Kingstown school system. We are fortunate to have known him. He was such a bright star!!! Karin and Christopher Graefe (former N. Kingstown residents now in Massachusetts)

"Mister Cain" inspired confidence, never gave false praise, and made the subjects he taught come alive for all of us. He was the first educator I ever felt spoke to us as a "real people", making the unbearable turmoil of being 13 years old actually tolerable. A great gift to have known him even for such a short time all those years ago: the memories are so strong they will be with me my whole life.

To the family of Frank Cain please accept my regrets that I could not attend the wake. But, I offer my sincerest sympathies. Frank was a good hearted man and builder of community in our town. He is missed already

Yours,

Senator Jim Sheehan
