Vin Diesel made sure we don’t forget about his good friend and Fast & Furious co-star, the late Paul Walker.

Uncle Pablo

Vin remembered Paul on Sunday, exactly one year after the fatal car accident that took Paul’s life, by posting a photograph of his daughter Hania Riley Vincent with Paul, accompanied by a touching message in which he tried to emphasize how close the actors really were.

“He was a part of so much of my life… long personal talks with my mother or babysitting the Alpha Angel… he took a certain pride in being Uncle Pablo. After all, we were filming a scene in FF4 the day (Hania) was born, and he being the only one I told, encouraged me to go in and cut the umbilical cord,” the actor wrote via his official Facebook page, and continued:

“He was an important part of my transition into fatherhood… that healthy family member, with the most positive outlook on life. A year ago today… a year of mourning… and his absence still leaves me speechless. We miss you Pablo.”

Sending mad love out to Heaven

Paul’s other “Fast & Furious” co-stars also remembered their friend and co-star by paying touching tributes themselves.

Michelle Rodriguez marked Sunday’s anniversary by saying: “I love you Paul. You’re living in the hearts of all who love you for sure. Sending mad love out to Heaven,” while Ludacris wrote: “Always in our hearts. Can’t believe it’s been a year already. Your spirit will be felt in volumes across the world forever.”

Tyrese Gibson also managed to cause waterfalls among his and Paul’s fans by saying that he might be physically gone, but Paul will continue to live forever through his work and his friends.

“I miss my brother, I miss my friend and I miss OUR STAR!!! Physically gone but forever alive in our minds, hearts and spirit… What was once tears of pain and shock are now tears of JOY celebrating all that you stood for. Everyone worldwide please take 5 mins out of your day to send love, prayers and energy to Paul’s family, his daughter Meadow and immediate circle. Today will be a tough day for us… To this day his arm is still around my neck with love and protection… Rest in heaven.”
