The anniversary of the sinking.

49 years ago. Lost all 29 of the crew.
This is some of the most complete information on the sinking.

I've been to the museum a couple of times and if you ate ever near there it is worth seeing. Bob
Terrible
I have seen a few stories on TV and internet over the years
and if course listed countless times to Gordon Lightfoot song which help immortalized it
Another sad loss of life passing into the books of history
May they all RIP
I was at Whitefish Bay yesterday with my brother and two nephews. Rode ATV's sixty miles along the Lake Superior shore. People from here will never forget what they were doing, when they heard the Fitzgerald was gone.
Wow, it's 49 year already? Such a tragedy those poor souls died.
I like the tune of the song a whole lot more than the story.😪
