Nearly ten years after Paul Walker‘s passing, his daughter — Meadow Rain Walker — is taking a moment to wish her late dad a happy heavenly birthday.
On Tuesday (Sept. 12), Meadow shared a throwback photo of her and her father. Beneath the lovely picture, the 24-year-old wrote, “Happy birthday to my guardian angel.”
Meadow continued, paying tribute and thanking her dad for teaching her “to always treat everyone with respect.”
“Thank you for your love, guidance, friendship, sunshine and for raising me to see all of the beauty in the world. You are the most kind, humble, generous and caring soul I know. You taught me at a young age to always treat everyone with respect, to do good and to take care of our planet.”
She wrapped up by penning, “I love you and miss you every day.”
Hours later, she shared another post to highlight “one of [her] favorite photos” of Paul Walker. She also noted that the image was featured on a “limited edition” shirt, and all proceeds would go to the Paul Walker Foundation.
Meadow’s uploads commemorate what would’ve been Paul’s 50th birthday, and they come two-and-a-half months ahead of his death anniversary.
The Fast and the Furious actor passed away on Nov. 30, 2013, as the result of a fiery car crash in Santa Clarita, Calif. He was sitting in the passenger seat while his friend Roger Rodas was driving. The duo is estimated to have been traveling nearly two times faster than the posted speed limit before fatally crashing.
Nearly eight years after Paul’s passing, Vin Diesel stepped up to walk Meadow down the aisle on her wedding day. A year and a half later, Paul’s brother Cody Walker named his son after the late actor, as The Shade Room reported.
Happy heavenly birthday, Paul Walker.
