On Monday, actor Vin Diesel, a long-time friend of the late Paul Walker, visited the crash site where Walker lost his life. Diesel addressed the crowds of fans that had been gathering at the site to pay tribute to the deceased "Fast and Furious" actor. Diesel used a police car microphone to speak to the ever growing crowd, thanking them for their continued love and support for Paul and the Walker family. Diesel said he would never forget what he saw and let fans know the Walker family appreciates their support.
On Saturday, Walker and a friend, Roger Rodas, were killed when the Porsche Rodas was driving crashed into a pole and exploded into flames. Following a candlelight vigil Diesel thanked the crowd for "showing that angel up in heaven how much you appreciated him." Since the accident occurred on Saturday fans have been leaving flowers, cards and candles at the site where Walker and Rodas lost their lives. Diesel was the final "Fast and Furious" cast member to comment on the passing of Walker. Diesel showed up at the vigil after leaving a comment on his Facebook page.
"To live in the hearts we leave behind, is not to die," Diesel wrote quoting the Scottish poet Thomas Campbell. "Pablo, I wish you could see the world right now...and the profound impact, your full life has had on it, on us...on me...I will always love you Brian, as the brother you were...on and off screen," Diesel's Facebook post said. Vin Diesel and Paul Walker starred in the first "Fast and Furious" movie together in 2001. The pair would go on to star in five of the seven films together.
