By City News Service Jan 26, 2021 CALABASAS (CNS) - Basketball fans across the country were remembering today's first anniversary of the helicopter crash in Calabasas that killed Lakers legend Kobe Bryant, his 13-year-old daughter Gianna and seven others, as a final determination on the probable cause of the crash approaches. Bryant's widow Vanessa took to Instagram on Tuesday to post a letter she received from one of Gianna's best friends, which read in part, “My mind constantly thinks of your beautiful daughter. Her smile and attitude push me to be better. You have probably heard this, but if I ever become a mom, I hope my daughter turns out exactly as yours did.''
