Bronx Borough President Ruben Diaz Jr. had the honor of lighting the Riverdale menorah on the third night of Chanukah. As you will see in the photos below it was no easy strike a match and light the menorah. Diaz Jr. and the Rabbi had to be secured in the bucket of the truck, and hoisted up to the top of the menorah with a small torch in hand to light the giant menorah. You can click on any photo to enlarge it.
