“We had just spent time with him,” McBride said. “It’s hard to put into words. You see the light they’re trying to give to the world, and it’s just a dark feeling. It was really a hard time. As a hooper, he’s what everyone wanted to be. I was very grateful to have one of those bright spots with him. He had so much more to give to the world.” Even though Bryant is gone, a source with knowledge of the camp’s planning said the goal is to make the event a yearly occurrence. McBride said she’s willing to help organize and run future camps. Bryant would approve.
