A Message of Hope and Unity in Memory of Charlie Kirk
Dear friends, family, and supporters,
Yesterday, the tragic loss of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University shook us all. His voice, so full of passion and conviction, was silenced in a moment of senseless violence. As we grieve, I share with you a song I wrote, Chrysalian - Charlie's Song, to honor his memory and the light he brought to so many.
In this time of sorrow, it’s easy to let fear take hold, to let it twist into rage that divides us further. But Charlie’s life was about building, inspiring, and uniting people around ideas of freedom and truth. He wouldn’t want us to surrender to anger. Instead, let’s channel our grief into carrying forward his message of hope, courage, and love for our country.
Through Chrysalian - Charlie's Song, I hope to remind us that even in darkness, we can find transformation—like a chrysalis becoming something beautiful. Let’s hold fast to Charlie’s spirit, keeping his legacy alive through civil discourse, compassion, and the fearless pursuit of what’s right.
Let’s choose unity over division, love over hate, and purpose over despair. Together, we can ensure Charlie’s memory endures as a beacon of inspiration.
With heartfelt sorrow,
Melanie Hilliard
