OAK CREEK - It's been one month since a gunman opened fire at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin in Oak Creek - killing six and wounding three others.
In remembrance of the tragedy, a candlelight prayer vigil was held on Marquette University's campus Wednesday night.
One of the victims, Punjab Singh is still in the hospital, but his condition has been upgraded from critical to serious.
The tragic incident took the lives of six and left three critically injured before Oak Creek police brought down the gunman, 40-year-old Wade Michael Page.
Wednesday night, burning candles held by mourners represented the light they want to shine on the victims' families.
"Letting them know they are not alone and we care about love and peace and unity."
These actions helped soothe wounds that are still fresh. Raghuvinder Singh is Punjab Singh's eldest son. His father was shot in the head and still recovering at the hospital.
"I want to say for more people to pray for him. I believe in prayers and with blessing of prayers, he will get up," Singh said.
Vigil organizers say it was a way to remember the victims and also spread awareness.
"This vigil helps us come together and recognize and learn more about each other."
