John hosted a Pistons event and he was the first person who could make me laugh after I lost my mom in 2012. Thanks, John.

[@ajrose1245]

Condolences to your mom bruh! May she rest easy!

[@theswede4124]

Loosing a parent, no matter what age, is one of the most painful things you can go through. I know from experience. But, his mother lived a full life. 96 is incredible.

[@kristinLB]

How someone passes and all the circumstances really affect how you feel and deal. My dad died slowly of cancer. We had time with him. Time to process and heal as we went. But my m9m passed suddenly and it was a shock feeling ill never forget. It took years to get past. Kobe was talented yes...but he was also a huge huge light. Doing big things, a young family, a 20 year marriage. At 41! He was making changes in the world.

[@demetrius123S]

Love these John Sally interviews

[@M1staKnight00]

R.I.P TO THE QUEEN MRS. SALLY

[@tfox6919]

I've always liked John. He seems like a good guy. Know what I mean? He's laid back. Easy flow when he speaks. He doesn't have to substitute cuss words for just regular words. Ppl who have to cuss a lot usually don't have much of a vocabulary. John seems to be a very intelligent guy.

[@glockspecific7757]

What an amazing lady, be proud of it!

[@wayne9054]

Peace and blessings to you Mr. Salley.

You DAM skippy this man is gonna cry when losing his beloved mother. If you're blessed with a good mother, losing her is like losing part of your heart. Vlad do better!!!!!!!!!!😒...... SMDH

[@iamteamyou]

96 is difficult..... you see a lot of stuff. Long life is a True Blessing and a curse. Because every person you grew up with all pass away. Leaving you to see all those funerals.
