The Edmund Fitgerald was the largest ship to ever sink in the Great Lakes. It went down in storm on Lake Superior 48 years ago today with 29 crew members. A memorial was held today and has been held every year for the family members of the crew. The story of the ship is here: The Story of the Edmund Fitzgerald -- Introduction
