Remembering Kobe.
Thank you God for allowing me enjoy Kobe Bryant for 20 years as a great basketball player, athlete, husband, father, philanthropist, mentor & teacher of the game to many men & women of all ages, best friend to Rob Pelinka, & brother to @jeaniebuss. pic.twitter.com/PgWY3wDzu6 — Earvin Magic Johnson (@MagicJohnson) January 26, 2021 The last year showed us life can be unpredictable & fragile. It's been 1 year since the deaths of Kobe Bryant, Gianna & those on board with them. Kobe was a champion of basketball, but also of women's sports. He was the ultimate #GirlDad. Thinking of his loved ones today. pic.twitter.com/e5Vq7ZDqE1 — Billie Jean King (@BillieJeanKing) January 26, 2021 You will be remembered with good memories... R.I.P.

Life is so precious. We can not forget their spark and the difference they made to the world.
