William S. Cain Ph.D.

One more reference to Bill in high school. Here's Bill listed in The Jamesonian "Personalities" feature. Page 2 again. https://archive.org/details/thejamesonian19590430/page/n1/mode/2up

Per my note, re: Jamesonian, visit the listed URL and scroll to the bottom of Page 2, left corner, to find Bill's name. https://archive.org/details/thejamesonian19590529/page/n1/mode/1up This one lists Bill as "Art Editor" as he thought the title would help his acceptance at college (Page 2 - bottom, right). https://archive.org/details/thejamesonian19590209/page/n1/mode/1up

Bill & I both attended Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School, Brooklyn, NY. He and I worked side-by-side on the school's newspaper - The Jamesonian. Back then, he was our resident artist, drawing cartoons for inclusion in the monthly publication. He was always upbeat & cheerful. Never uttered a negative word. God rest his soul and my condolences to his family & friends.

Dr. Cain hired me as a research assistant in 2000 and changed the trajectory of my life. He struck me as a person who was fascinated by people, and tended to see the good in them. He was curious about almost everything and could talk to anyone about almost anything. He told me many things over the years I knew him but he once said there was something to learn from everyone. To me, he was a boss, a teacher, a mentor, a father figure, and ultimately a friend. He will be missed but not...

Bill was a close friend of my husband' in high school. We double-dated and had great times in the 50s.

Al and I are so sorry. We just saw the obit in the paper.I wish we had known sooner. In Jan. We moved back to San Diego last January because Al has not been well. Please share our condolences with the family. Irene Jalowayski

I want to add my condolences to family and friends. I was lucky to meet with Bill in recent years through the Fordham Club of San Diego. He came to a number of our events, including the summer sendoffs for new students and their parents. I always wanted to get together with Bill and we mentioned it in conversation; I never knew he lived in LaMesa, which is close to where I live. He was always fun to talk to, and I found him to be a kind and sensitive man. Vic Frazao
