Roommates, the city of Los Angeles has just announced it will host a public memorial for Kobe and Gianna Bryant, as well as the seven other lives lost in the tragic helicopter crash last week. According to The LA Times, the event will be held at the Staples Center on February 24th.
Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garrett said this about the upcoming memorial:
“I think one message that I would say is that it’s not just about a man who was a basketball player, this is about a father, this is about a leader, this is about a filmmaker, this is about an artists, this is about somebody who was so much more than just how he was on the court.”
He continued, saying that Kobe’s legacy has touched so many in the city of Los Angeles, and sends a reminder of how great the city is.
“It’s a reminder how much we have, though. We are the city that believes in each other, believes in something bigger than ourselves and we will absolutely do everything to make sure that this is done so that everybody can come to it as well,” he said.
As we previously reported, Kobe and Gianna Bryant tragically lost their lives alongside some of their closest friends. They were onboard a helicopter, in route to one of Gianna’s basketball games, when the helicopter unfortunately crashed, and burst into flames.
People from all over the world have started tributes to the lives lost, including gathering memoribilia outside of the Staples Center, whee Kobe played every season of his basketball career.
As of now, no other details have been disclosed, but some assume the memorial will be held in a similar fashion to there icons, like Nipsey Hussle.
Stay with us for more details, Roomies, and keep the families and friends in your prayers.
