Several men lost their lives on that ship, and I know they are suppose to be on the memorial. Yeah I own a copy of the movie and have watched it ten times at least and it breaks my heart every time

    3. Look at the entire list - go to: http://web.archive.org/web/20011126020455/downtosea.com/cenotaph/memorial6.htm Look at 1991 for the men of the perfect storm. Amazing to review the entire list and see all those names and as you read them from year to year notice how the names change from the "old immigrant" families to the "newer immigrant" families. Also interesting is how there was such a large loss of life in the early days compared to the modern era, better equipment and more stringent safety measures should be the reason. But the fishing business still remains one of the most dangerous, sad when you think of the loss of life and the impact it must have on the families left behind.. =================================================================== ----- Original Message ----- From: <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, December 11, 2006 9:17 PM Subject: Re: [MASUFFOL] Gloucester Fishermen's Memorial > > In a message dated 12/11/2006 9:16:08 P.M.
