The devastation that the death of basketball idol, Kobe Bryant, sparked was palpable around his father, Joe Brant, on Tuesday, when he stepped out for the first time.
Joe was not quoted as saying anything but his aura spoke volumes.
DailyMail said a neighbour of he and Kobe’s mother described their situation thus:
‘I talked to them twice yesterday and took over food and a card, and briefly today, they are just devastated, as you can imagine,’ the neighbor said, adding: ‘It’s a private, awful moment, losing their son and grand-daughter, it’s just horrific. I was talking to Joe briefly the day before, we were out for a walk, it was all happy and good and talking about the gorgeous weather and then it switched in 24 hours where their lives were turned upside down.’
