Notes

Wil's mom (Anne) tried many recipes to attempt to make the perfect cheesecake for his dad (Fritz). She never found that recipe until after Fritz died. A Jewish neighbor brought a cheesecake to the memorial meal. It was that perfect cheesecake he would have loved. This has been the requested birthday cake for all his off-spring ever since. **Note from Marcy added 9/22/11: Honey Maid keeps shrinking the size of their crackers. I just made the crust and used a whole package of crackers(1 of the 3 pks in the box). I thought we should know the ounces so we can know how to convert when they shrink the crackers again. I used 4.8oz of crackers and this seems to be perfect.
