Tim Allen has revealed that hearing Erika Kirk’s moving forgiveness for her husband’s alleged murderer helped him forgive the man who killed his own father in 1964.

Gerald Dick, Allen’s father, died in a car accident when Allen was 11, and the loss profoundly shaped his life. Allen posted on social media, “When Erika Kirk spoke those words, it deeply affected me. I have struggled to forgive the man who killed my Dad. I forgive him now.”
The actor’s admission marked a turning point, embraced by fans who applauded the message’s spirit of mercy and healing.
