About.
Everyone knows someone who is or was a commercial fisherman. Almost everyone knows someone who has lost a relative, loved one, friend or acquaintance to the Commercial Fishing Industry. In 1991, a small group of folks got together in Juneau with the mission of building a memorial to commercial fishermen, especially for those who have been lost at sea - for whom the memorial now serves as their only grave.
