Cain left the group in 1971 but returned for a later version of the group.

“I’m gonna miss him. We grew up together since 1968,” Wilbert Hart told the Philadelphia Daily News. He said he saw Randy about five to six months ago. Chuck Gamble of Philadelphia International Records said Kenny Gamble and Leon Huff “have fond memories of working with Randy and the group.”
