Kobe and Gianna Bryant died in a helicopter crash on Jan. 26 outside Calabasas. They traveled with seven other people, and none of them survived the crash. It was a tragedy that shocked the basketball world, and fans mourn over the death of the Lakers legend. It’s hard to accept reality especially when you realize that the girl was just 13. Gigi was about to become as awesome as her dad, but this opportunity was snatched right from her hands. The Bryant family organized a memorial to praise the greatness of Kobe and his girl. A lot of people attended the service, including Michael Jordan, Rob Pelinka, Diana Taurasi, Beyonce and many others. They all celebrated the life of the Black Mamba and his baby Mamba. LeBron James took honored Kobe and Gianna, too.

It was a sad day for everyone, and we will need a lot of time to get over the terrible loss. Kobe was an excellent person and a devoted dad. His wife, Vanessa, was heartbroken.
