Rumored to be part of the "Furious 8" cast, Cody Walker has recently expressed how much he respects Paul Walker as he has stepped in as brand manager for his late brother's disaster relief organization Reach Out Worldwide (ROWW).
Speaking with People at a recent ROWW fundraising event, Cody said Paul was a "really great example" for him and described his late brother as a multi-faceted, spontaneous, and obsessive-compulsive adventurer.
While Paul was known for his love for cars, Cody said his oldest brother was not "just the car guy. He said Paul had "so many different passions, so many different loves."
"Furious 7" stars Michelle Rodriguez and Tyrese Gibson attended the sad recent event that raised funds for ROWW, which aims to accelerate relief efforts when natural disasters through a network of professionals with first responder skill-sets.
As brothers, Cody said his relationship with Paul "went through different stages" as he pointed out that there are some things that people cannot share with a sibling when they are very young.
According to Cody, Paul purposefully kept his humanitarian work under the radar because he did not ever want any recognition for it.
In 2010, an earthquake devastated Haiti, which urged Paul to create a foundation. But after the "Furious 7" actor's sudden death in a car crash, the foundation was left unsteady.
Cody said ROWW will never, ever be the same as there were a lot of unknowns after the death of Paul, who was the sole contributor who just paid for everything making him such a huge factor behind it.
