On Sunday, January 26, around 9 AM PST, a tragedy occured; one that many will never forget.  Nine passengers aboard, including the pilot (Zobayan), a retired NBA star Kobe Bryant and his 13 year old daughter Gianna, all died on impact as their carrier, a Sikorsky 76-B helicopter crashed in Calabasas, CA en route to John Wayne Airport.  

Without the aid of a flight recorder (black box), it could take up to two years to learn the cause of this tragedy happened, and the saddest of all is that even upon the conclusion of the investigation of this crash, we may never know the reason.

 As we move towards healing from this sadness, we lean upon both our faith and our reason to guide us to a better understanding. 

Our condolences to the survivors.
