On this day in 1975, the Edmund Fitzgerald sank beneath the waves of Lake Superior during a massive storm.
The sinking took the lives of all 29 men on the ship, and became immortalized in Gordon Lightfoot's song.
Let's learn more about this tragedy.

ALT The image shows a large lake freighter ship named "Edmund Fitzgerald" sailing on a body of water. The ship has a white superstructure with a red hull and is flying a flag from its mast. The sky is overcast, and there is a plume of smoke coming from the ship's smokestack, indicating it is in operation. The ship is well-known due to its tragic sinking in a storm on Lake Superior in 1975, which inspired the song "The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" by Gordon Lightfoot.

Rachel Goldberg-Polin: "Ok sweet boy, go now on your journey. I hope it's as good as the trips you dreamed about because finally, my sweet boy, finally, finally, finally, finally you are free.
I will love you and I will miss you every single day for the rest of my life, but you're right here. I know you're right here. I just have to teach myself how to feel you in a different way.
And Hersh there is one last thing I need you to do for us. Now I need you to help us stay strong and I need you to help us survive"
