2/24: What the World Should Remember About Kobe Bryant
Feature in Memorial - February 25, 2020
February 24.
This date may be just another 24-hour cycle in the 365-day trip around the sun or another block on the yearly calendar for many. However, for the sports world, it will signify so much more than that. From this point on, it will be a day of remembrance for a fearless athlete, a game-changing activist, a proud girl dad and one of nine lives tragically lost way too soon.
It has been about a month since we lost Kobe Bryant, his daughter Gianna and seven others in the helicopter crash that shook the world. Even after a full turn of the page on the calendar, the impact and feelings of pain and sorrow from such a tragedy haven’t diminished one iota, and who knows if they ever will.
