Kobe Bryant

[DEBMZ6]

Such tragic news.  My thoughts and prayers go to all the families and friends that lost their love ones.

I didn't know about his daughter at first because the news was so focused on him, God rest her soul.

[PGS28]

Rest in Peace brother, your work here must have been done.

When I first saw the news of their death, I couldn't believe it.  I pray that God gives his wife and children all the strength they need to get thru losing a husband, daughter/sister and Dad.

Kobe Bryant and his 13-year-old daughter, Gianna Bryant, have been laid to rest.

A private funeral for the two was held at Pacific View Memorial Park in Corona Del Mar, California, on Friday, February 7, two weeks after they died in a helicopter crash alongside seven others. The legendary NBA star is survived by his wife, Vanessa Bryant, and the three other children they shared, Natalia, 17, Bianka, 3, and Capri, 7 months.

In addition to the private funeral, a public memorial will be held for Kobe and Gianna on Monday, Feb. 24 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, where the athlete played professional basketball with the Lakers for the entirety of his 20-year career. "24" is a special date, as it's the number Kobe sported on his journey since the 2006-07 season.
