Description
A Christmas tree lighting ceremony took place Monday on Purdue University's campus. A 32-foot spruce is making spirits bright in the Memorial Union.
This year, the tree was donated by a university employee.
It fulfilled a Christmas wish for the man who donated it, and the woman he loved and lost.
"To me, it's an honor to be able to do this," said Darrell Smith, recalling his late wife, Tina.
