This year will mark the 25th Anniversary of the Pan Am 103 Lockerbie Air Bombing.

The tragedy has permanently linked the city of Syracuse with Lockerbie.

At SU they call it Remembrance Week and events kicked off last weekend.  Senior Erin Carhart helped organized a candlelight vigil tonight that began at Hendricks Chapel with speeches and concluded at the Wall of Remembrance with silence.

Educator Graham Herbert, of Lockerbie Academy, made the trip to Syracuse for this week's activities.
