A heartfelt and well-attended vigil took place Tuesday night in memory of Charlie Kirk on Ocean Drive Beach, near the Horseshoe on Main Street. Speakers from various backgrounds shared touching stories about Charlie’s influence on their lives and faith. The crowd came together to sing “Amazing Grace,” led by a fellow attendee, and “God Bless the USA,” led by Gary Lowder. Many brought flowers, American flags, and photos of Charlie to honor his memory. The NMB Police Department provided support, and the patriotic Robin Cloud was present to capture the event in photos.

North Myrtle Beach and the surrounding area come together this time of year to honor the heroes and victims of this dark day in American history.  We gather to remember the fallen and celebrate the heroes that rose from the ash.  And to do that we become one spirit, strong in our belief that America can withstand any storm.  We do that in prayer and song, Craig Woolard was the intelligent, insightful person to lead us in song.  The Embers featuring Craig Woolard provided inspiration to the largest Music on Main Celebration that this writer can remember.  O.D.
