Melt butter in heavy pot and sauté onions and parsley. Blend in flour, cream, and cheese, until cheese is melted. Add other ingredients and gently fold in crab meat. This may be served in a chafing dish with Melba toast or toast points, or in patty shells. I have used canned crab in this recipe, in case you cannot find fresh crabmeat!
