Savannah Shared That She Had A Personal Connection To The Story
In a caption appearing on the video, Savannah wrote that “Heaven gained an angel.” She described Kirk as a “lifelong friend,” adding he was there for her during the “hardest” times of her life.

The Chrisley Knows Best star admitted that she was “still processing” what had happened. As she noted, she actually had a close connection to what happened: she was meant to join Kirk on an upcoming part of the college speaking tour. She shared she was “supposed to be sitting next to Charlie every weekend in October.”
As the video ended, Savannah asked people to pray for Kirk and his family, especially his children. She also touched on his widow, Erika Frantzve. Savannah shared that her “heart is with you. I love you.”
Savannah also shared more about her feelings in a caption. It read, “[Kirk] believed in me and in my family when the world turned its back. He saw potential, he spoke life into us, and he reminded me that God still had a plan even when I couldn’t see it myself. That kind of belief changes you forever.”
