STUART, Fla. — A sea of mourners filled an Arizona arena Sunday to honor the life and legacy of Charlie Kirk, the 31-year-old founder of Turning Point USA, whose influence on conservative politics was felt nationwide.

Calling it a ‘revival’, hundreds of thousands of people gathered for the service, including President Donald Trump, and several political figures who spoke about Kirk’s influence on the conservative movement.

From Florida, Stuart businessman James Crocker flew to Arizona after receiving a personal invitation from the organization. Crocker said he chose to bring a handful of local high school and college students with him.

“I just felt that these kids could benefit so greatly from actually attending this event in person,” Crocker said.
