Erika Kirk shared a heartbreaking video of her young daughter visiting Turning Point USA’s offices and joyfully recognizing images of her father, slain conservative activist Charlie Kirk.
The widowed mother of two shared the short clip on her Instagram account. In it, her daughter is in a moving car and excitedly says, “I see daddy! Charlie Kirk,” when she sees his image on a poster.

Erika reflected on the moment in the post caption, writing, “Her… saying your name, as she witnesses all you’ve built and continue to build, proves that love never dies, just changes form. It breathes through our children. This is her legacy also.”
She continued, “And as she grows up and continues to say your name, I’ll be reminding her that each time Heaven leans in to listen.”
“I love you Charlie baby, I’m so proud of you,” she concluded. “We all are so proud of you.”
The post quickly gained traction on social media, with many supporters offering prayers and words of comfort for the Kirk family as they navigate the unimaginable loss.

“I can hardly watch this video. They took this sweet baby’s dad & it’s inevitable that one day she’ll see the graphic video of how,” women’s sports defender and two-time NCAA All-American swimmer Riley Gaines wrote in response. “Continued prayers for Charlie’s family.”
“It’s the same gut punch all over again. I don’t know how she does it. Takes a great deal of strength that I can’t even imagine,” another comment said.
“Oh my this just shatters my heart,” a third person replied. “Never stop praying for this beautiful family.”
Kirk was assassinated while speaking at a college event in Utah in September. The Turning Point USA founder was shot in the neck before being rushed to a hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.
Earlier this month, President Donald Trump posthumously awarded Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest civilian honor.
“We’re here to honor and remember a fearless warrior for liberty, a beloved leader who galvanized the next generation like nobody I’ve ever seen before, and an American patriot of the deepest conviction,” Trump said during the event in the Rose Garden on October 14, which would have been Kirk’s 32nd birthday. “He was a champion in every way.”
