Jess Cain featured in Steve Buckley article (today's Herald)

from today's Herald:

Jess Cain was "a morning presence on the old WHDH from 1957 to 1991. He was a natural on the stage, appearing in countless theatrical productions throughout the region." Jess recalls some old
radio bits: the Hanlon shoes jingle; the little boy who used to call the show (so long ago that that
boy is retired now)...Dave Wong's China Sails.

Buckley says that Cain is now in a hospice for the terminally ill in Cambridge. He had a bunch of
radio-related visitors lately. And Buckley gives an address where you can drop Jess a card.
(In case the full article is inaccessible by the time you read this, here is that address:
Jess Cain, Chilton House, 65 Chilton Street, Cambridge, Mass., 02138. )

as a family we decided to bring dad home this friday 12/28/07. Obvioulsy his condition is still terminal, but he is feeling better and he wants to come home, so we have granted his wish. Thank you for all of your kind words. I am sure all of the letters and visitors had a lot to due with him "feeling better."
