Dear Kobe,

My father, grandpa and I would watch Laker games together every time. Three generations and only one true Laker Fan, but we all agreed, were all mesmerized watching you play. You were like my father on the screen. You’d dribble, Shoot , alley oop , dunk and each time you would I felt so proud of you, so happy. You inspired my family, you inspired LA, You inspired the world. I miss you without even knowing you truly. I send all my love to those that did, for the pain must be excruciating.

Thank you,

Amandla
