Actor Tim Allen said he has struggled for over 60 years to forgive the drunk driver who killed his father, only now finding the will to do so after hearing Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk, say she forgave the young man charged with murdering her husband.
Allen, who is best known for playing Tim "The Toolman" Taylor on the sitcom “Home Improvement,” reflected on Erika’s speech during the Sunday memorial service for her husband, where she revealed that she forgave Tyler Robinson, the man charged with killing her husband.
“When Erika Kirk spoke the words on the man who killed her husband: ‘That man … that young man … I forgive him.’ That moment deeply affected me,” the 72-year-old actor wrote in a Thursday X post. “I have struggled for over 60 years to forgive the man who killed my Dad.

“Peace be with you all,” Allen stated.
