Nathaniel Eugene Cain

Nathaniel Eugene Cain , know to some as “Gene” and some as “Nat”, transitioned to the next life on February 20th engulfed in love. Born in Birmingham, Alabama on November 26, 1939, he attended St. Bernard High School and St. Bernard College in Cullman, Alabama. He was a man of faith, loving husband and father, business owner, student of life, athlete and mentor to many. He lived by his convictions and instilled in everyone around him a perspective of living life with enthusiasm. His mark on the world can be noted by his constant giving to the less fortunate, his acceptance of the flaws in other people, and a loyalty to those close to him. In a changing world, he was able to find the balance between a solid foundation in core beliefs about God and about how people should treat each other in a loving and accepting manner. His legacy lives on through those he left behind: his wife Barbara Cain, three children Marianna Sullivan, John Cain, Beth Jackson, and nine grandchildren who strive to embody his character. He wants to be remembered for life and not death. Visitation will be at Woodlawn Funeral Home, 1 Pine Knoll Drive, Greenville, SC on Friday, February 24th from 6:00-8:00 pm where a funeral service will be held on Saturday, February 25th at 10 a.m. Burial will follow in Woodlawn Memorial Park.
