Songwriter and playwright, Tyler Perry, has released a video tribute to Bobbi Kristina Brown, the deceased daughter of his close friend Bobby Brown. Perry showed the emotional video tribute to Bobbi Kristina Brown's friends and mourning family during a private memorial held last month.
The video was reportedly shared on Perry's page on Friday, September 4. It contains different photos of Kristina as a baby until she was all grown up, which included some photos of her and her late mother, Whitney Houston and her father Bobby Brown.
The Houston estate asked if I would share this tribute that I put together for Bobbi Kristina's private funeral. On behalf of the Brown and Houston families, we would all like to thank you for your prayers and support. God bless,

The melody of the video is set to Whitney Houston's 1996 ballad "You Were Love", the song used as a background music to her Christmas romantic comedy movie 'The Preacher's Wife'.
When asked as to why he decided to share the video to the public, he explained "The Houston estate asked if I would share this tribute that I put together for Bobbi Kristina's private funeral."
He went on saying, "On behalf of the Brown and Houston families, we would all like to thank you for your prayers and support. God bless."
The video tribute quoted, "I hope you feel my love, pain, beauty, agony at times, blessings all the time. No one understands me. And I don't expect them to, but I will try to spread my love and my story through words and this blessing of a powerful voice mom has given me."
Bobbi Kristina Brown passed away last July 26, after she went through a coma for nearly 6 months following her hospitalization in late January this year.
She was found unresponsive in a bathtub at her home in Georgia. Bobbi Kristina's death was similar to her mother, Whitney Houston who died in 2012 at the age of 48, after she was found unresponsive in a bathtub in her hotel room in Beverly Hills.
The young singer and actress was laid to rest next to her mother's grave in New Jersey last August 3.
"My friend and I drove from Wilmington, North Carolina, to show our support of Whitney's daughter Bobbi Kristina." one onlooker who joined the procession said in a statement. "Whitney's music got us through some hard times."
While the case is still ongoing, the Brown and Houston families are still waiting for the toxicology reports to wholly confirm the cause of her death.
