ROCHESTER, Mich. – Each year, John Sattmann and his family deck out their Rochester home with an extravagant Christmas light display, while collecting money for a charity.

This year, the family is raising money to help the family of Oakland County Deputy Eric Overall, who was killed on Thanksgiving.

The light display is a show programed to music that can be heard by tuning to the family's radio station while viewing the lights.

It's the 10th year that the Sattmann's have put on their holiday light show.

There is a box next to the mailbox for those who wish to donate. The family said in the past, they have donated to Leader Dogs for the Blind, the Kiwanis Club and other charities.

The Sattmann's Christmas light display is at 1150 Ridgeway Drive.
