“In a world filled with chaos and uncertainty, my husband’s voice will remain,” Erika said.
She encouraged young people to continue getting involved and being courageous for the things they are passionate about.
Erika told the country that the evil that was done to her husband “unleashed” an entire generation that would rise up and stand for what they believed was right.
“I can’t wait to see you again one day,” she continued.
Erika thanked everyone who supported Charlie, and shared the gospel of Christ, reminding the world that he was home in heaven where he always wanted to be.
The couple married on May 08, 2021, in Scottsdale, Arizona. Erika is a social entrepreneur and passionate ministry leader, according to her official website.
She has also worked in the entertainment industry as a model, actress, and casting director.
