The family would like to extend their thanks and appreciation to the entire staff at Geisinger Wyoming Valley Medical Center over the past few months and to all the 5th floor nurses who were very compassionate. God Bless all of you. Funeral services will be held at 11 a.m. Saturday from the Earl W. Lohman Funeral Home Inc., 14 W. Green St., Nanticoke. Friends may call from 9 a.m. until time of service. In lieu of flowers, the family requests donations will be made to the Henry Cancer Center, 1000 E. Mountain Blvd., Wilkes-Barre, PA 18711, in memory of Harold.

My deepest sympathy to the Cain family. I graduated high school with Harold's sister Margaret. And my mother was very good friends years go with Harold's mother.
We all lived on Washington St. in Nanticoke years ago. The Cain's on West and my family on East Washington.
