This annual program remembering lost mariners of the Great Lakes was highlighted by Michael Schumacher, author of numerous historical books, including the forthcoming "November's Fury," an account of the Great Storm of 1913. His presentation focused on the worst maritime disaster to ever hit the Great Lakes, during which over a dozen large freighters foundered and over 200 lives were lost. A lantern vigil at the Edmund Fitzgerald anchor begins the night, followed by a performance by Lee Murdock, Great Lakes balladeer, and an Honor Guard escort of the memorial wreath to the Detroit River for receipt by the Honor Flotilla of Great Lakes vessels.
