This weekend the Jewish Festival of Lights will light up the downtown sky. This Sunday is the first day of Chanukah, which will mark the 8th annual Menorah in The D at Campus Martius. 

This year, a torch will be passed between eight honorees to celebrate the event’s 8th year. 

The torch will end with a metro Detroit woman whose family was touched by the tragedy in Pittsburgh.

Thirty-eight-year-old Erika Bocknek sits down with Action News Reporter Andrea Isom for a one-on-one.
