On Valentine’s Day 2026, Erika shared a deeply personal tribute to Charlie on Instagram.

She said she now reads his old letters more slowly, because they carry a deeper emotional weight. Reflecting on their life together, she acknowledged that they once assumed they would grow old side by side, but that future was never guaranteed.
She shared that she finds comfort in telling their children about the strength and meaning of their marriage, which she described as a lasting part of her life.

She also encouraged others to value their loved ones, suggesting that people take time to express love and appreciation, since life can change unexpectedly and written words can remain meaningful even after someone is gone.
She ended her post with, “I love you Charlie baby, you will always be my Valentine. ❤️”
