Mark Wahlberg will always remember Kobe Bryant and his generosity.
"It's obviously a tragic loss that everybody is feeling. Kobe, his daughter, the other family members, his family members, the other people that were on board in the helicopter, it's just tragic," Wahlberg expressed."It's just a reminder that life is short… All the people that you love, call them and remind them as often as possible and cherish every moment."
While the Boston-born actor was a die-hard Celtics fan, he said that"Kobe was always really sweet and could realize the difference between what his job was, who I was a fan of, and the mutual respect that we had for one another." "He would always go out of his way to be especially kind to my children," he recalled, before sharing a sweet story of the two."One of the great experiences of all time, I remember Matt Damon, actually, talked about when the Celtics were playing the Lakers in the finals. But [former Los Angeles Lakers coach] Phil Jackson had got up and yelled at us, more at him than me. But Kobe had said some really interesting things to me.
"It was one of those things where I think audiences, when you hear the story you can't believe that it's actually true and this had happened," the actor told ET."I was just talking to some of our former FBI officers and [they] actually informed us that we had information -- and these guys were able to find out information -- that the FBI never even knew."
