Personal Notes:
"I remember all of us getting up early to go to the wholesale fish market in Baltimore with Dad to pick up a couple bushels of blue crabs for neighborhood crab feasts. Nothing like waking up to the smell of steaming crabs! I can still picture him on the patio cooking them. Neighbors and friends would bring side dishes to share, burgers and hot dogs on the grill and the badminton court set up for playing in the yard." - Donna Poziomek Englestad
