Charlie Kirk's devastated widow revealed the tender words from Second Lady Usha Vance that brought her comfort in the wake of his assassination.
Speaking for the conservative activist's public memorial at State Farm Stadium in Arizona on Sunday, Erika Kirk revealed she turned to Usha for advice on how to cope with such a monumental loss.
Vice President JD Vance had transported Kirk's casket, along with Erika and their two young children, on board Air Force Two on September 11 - one day after Kirk was assassinated while debating students at the Utah Valley University college campus.
In emotional images, the grief-stricken Erika could be seen stepping off the plane hand in hand with Usha. The widow kept her head low and sunglasses on while the Second Lady guided her.
On Sunday, Erika thanked Usha for her stoicism during the tragedy, and the words of advice she offered on the plane.
