My father got hit by a car and died coming out of mass. I am glad Kobe has such a great relationship with God. Hes clearly in heaven.

Never heard of that person.

Is that a new religion? What kind of hats do they wear?
“Devout” Christians of any denomination don’t rape 19-year-old hotel staffers.
Hope this story is true.
Thank God he was in the state of grace. May he and all those who perished rest in God’s eternal peace.
RIP Kobe, He seemed like a good man, regardless of a few of his problems. We are all sinners to some degree.
To all of her defenders here:
Here is KOBE BRYANT’S statement:
“Although I truly believe this encounter between us was consensual, I recognize now that she did not.”
She was found to have had vaginal tears and bruising, consistent with rape.
Is it possible he confessed his mortal sins and was truly repentant? Yes. Only God can know his soul. But “devout” refers to someone’s public behavior. And it irritates me to no end when grave, notorious sinners are described as “devout.”
on our way back from a two week camping vacation in the Rockies
my father(William) wanted to go to Mass before finding a hotel
"they've got an 8 o'Clock everywhere" my Dad said
in WWII he had been to churches all over France as an MP (Gurard/Driver)
it was just after 8:00 and my Mom thought we would be late
but the the parish we pulled into had an 8:10.
Climbing the short flight or stairs up to our room
my Dad sat down on the stairs and said
"call an ambulance"
He died in the hospital just hours after telling us to
go back to the hotel and get some rest.
to this day it is very comforting to know.
Eternal rest grant unto Kobe and Gigi O Lord and
may perpetual light shine upon them
may their souls and all the souls
of the faithfully departed
thorough the Mercy of God
rest in peace
my condolences to the loved ones of all those that died in the crash.

“Devout Catholic”
A totally meaningless phrase all by itself.
So where would you judges of men’s souls be putting him if he hadn’t been to mass for a week?
Kobe and his daughter attended 7am mass on Sunday morning and both received communion. Then headed for the airport.
