Vanessa Bryant Makes First Public Statement

It has certainly been a week for the Bryant family with the passing of NBA Legend Kobe Bryant and his 13-year old daughter Gigi. On Wednesday, wife, and mother Vanessa Bryant took to Instagram making the family's first public comments since the incident this past Sunday.

Incredibly heartfelt sentiment by Vanessa, our thoughts, prayers, and hearts go out to her, her family, their friends and the families of the others who perished in that fateful helicopter crash.
