The certificate lists Kobe as an "author, producer, and athlete," and says that he had been in the entertainment business for 24 years.
Kobe lived and had a home in Newport Coast which is a part of Newport Beach, California.
The community was left in mourning after his sudden death.
At this local Starbucks where Kobe was a regular, signs are posted in his honor. Customers recalled seeing the 'Black Mamba' often.
Broderick Crawford who is a regular customer remembered seeing Kobe.
"Over the last five to six years it’s been ongoing so to have him not here has definitely made an impact on a lot of people," Crawford said.
Bryant was among nine individuals who perished when their helicopter crashed into a mountainside in Calabasas, California while flying to a girls basketball tournament at his Mamba Sports Academy. Bryant coached Gianna’s team, which was scheduled to play that afternoon. She and two teammates were among the deceased.
The other victims were identified as John Altobelli, along with his wife Keri and their daughter Alyssa, Sarah and Payton Chester, youth basketball coach Christina Mauser and pilot Ara Zobayan.
A preliminary report released Friday by the National Transportation Safety Board stated that wreckage from the helicopter that crashed did not show any sign of engine failure. The NTSB update included factual details, however, findings regarding a cause for the crash isn’t expected for a year or more.

Following news of Bryant’s death, fans spontaneously swarmed Staples Center within hours of the crash, creating a massive memorial of flowers, balloons, jerseys, stuffed toys, and basketballs. The items were removed two weeks after the crash, and fans were urged to donate to a Bryant foundation rather than bring more gifts and flowers.
The deaths shook Los Angeles and the sporting world. A public memorial for Bryant and the other victims is scheduled at Staples Center for Feb. 24 at 10 a.m.
The arena is where Bryant starred for the Los Angeles Lakers for most of his two-decade career and the date 2/24 corresponds with the No. 24 jersey he wore and the No. 2 worn by Gianna.
