Lessons learned from celebrity death

Yesterday the sports world lost an icon! Basketball great Kobe Bryant, his 13 old daughter, and 7 other passengers perished in California via a helicopter crash.  This was so very tragic and heartbreaking.  This loss has sparked so much talk in the news, on social media and in towns and cities across America.  


Tributes from sports legends such as Michael Jordan are sharing their condolences, the music industry remembered him last night at the Grammys.  Host Alecia Keys and the group Boyz to Men, sing their award-winning song, End of the Road and it is the talk about the water cooler on today. 


In the city of Chicago, the United Center, which is a sports venue pays tribute by lightening up the building and displaying pictures of Kobe Bryant with the Lakers colors of purple and gold.

  
Public grief is when we share a connection to someone we don’t personally know but feel the pain and anguish of losing them.  We feel this may when celebrities pass away, when we lose soldiers and, even when we follow news stories on the news or the radio.
