Throughout the world there have been various vigils occurring to remember Charlie Kirk's passing. These include the Turning Point USA organized memorial service in Charlie Kirk's honor on Sunday, September 21, 2025. This memorial service, happening just 11 days after his assassination, easily filled 2 stadiums with many more watching the live stream and later recordings.
Erika Kirk is Charlie Kirk's widow and she is leading the charge in his absence. She initially posted a video responding to her husband's assassination within a few days of his passing. She was visibly torn up and mentioned her youngest daughter's love of blueberries. At her husbands public memorial service she explained that she was taking up her husband's mantle and becoming CEO of Turning Point USA. She also managed to forgive her husband's assassin as she knew that is what Charlie would have wanted and what Jesus called her to do. This heart wrenching nearly impossible act of forgiveness helped right-wing individuals grieving their loss to behave appropriately and not lash out in their anger.
President Donald Trump made remarks at Charlie Kirk's Memorial. He has pledged to seek justice for Charlie Kirk's assassination and ensure the assassin sees justice.
Vice President JD Vance and his wife transported Charlie Kirk's body to his widow for burial. He also filled in on the Charlie Kirk Show following Charlie Kirk's passing. The video linked is his speech at Charlie Kirk's Memorial.
Nick Freitas is an ex-green beret and prior Virginia House of Delegates member. He did a tribute to Charlie Kirk in an attempt to direct the outrage in a healthy direction. He directs individuals to focus on the following 5 areas of their lives: spiritual, intellectual, emotional, professional, and physical. Then to focus your energy locally with a global perspective. He also reminds people to remain above reproach even in their grief.
