Patriots owner Robert Kraft visits Tree of Life Synagogue

PITTSBURGH -- New England Patriots owner Robert Kraft traveled to Pittsburgh a day early for his team's game against the Steelers and visited the Tree of Life Synagogue, where 11 people were killed by a gunman on Oct. 27.

Kraft, who is Jewish, paid his respects at the site of the shooting and then attended services with the congregation at its temporary location along with his son Josh.

During the service, Kraft was called to the bimah to speak and relayed that while Sunday's game was a big one, it meant more to him to be with them.
