I never was a fan of the Lakers, but I would always watch a game if Kobe was involved, I was dumb struck when I first read it. True Legend gone way before his time. RIP Kobe

RIP to the Black Mamba and Gigi.

I wanted to cry when I read the news.

A sad and costly reminder to not take things for granted.

Absolutely stunning, and very tragic. RIP Kobe, his daughter, the pilot and the teammate and other parent.

Hits close to home too even though I’ve never been in CA. Have some pilot friends out there who fly out of the same airport that Kobe has his helicopter based at. One took a picture yesterday of Kobe’s helicopter on the ramp while he was waiting to taxi and sent it to me. Not a huge basketball guy but was a big Kobe fan.

Just tragic. 

And another parent and child. Just a horrible thing for all involved.

Absolutely devastating. Rip to the legend and his beautiful young daughter.

Still in shock
