Vin Diesel and other "Fast & Furious" stars took to the social media to extend tribute to Paul Walker on Sunday, exactly one year after he died in a car crash in California.

On Nov. 30, 2013, then-40-year-old Walker was killed after a Porsche he was riding slammed into a tree north of Los Angeles and burst into flames, leaving Meadow, his teenage daughter, and his parents and siblings.

After the incident, his "Fast and Furious" co-star and friend Vin Diesel visited the crash scene and used a police car's loud speaker to express his gratitude to Walker's grieving fans for their love and support for the actor.

In his post on Facebook on Sunday, Diesel again expressed his grief over the loss of his friend who stood by his side and encouraged him through entering the world of fatherhood.

"He was a part of so much in my life . . . long personal talks with my mother or babysitting the Alpha Angel . . . he took a certain pride in being uncle Pablo," he wrote.

In his past tributes to Walker, Vin Diesel often referred to him as his "brother."

Other members of the "Fast & Furious" cast including Michelle Rodriguez, Ludacris and Tyrese also voiced their love for their deceased co-star and friend.

"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," Tyrese posted on Twitter, urging his followers to share five minutes of their time to pray for Walker's bereaved family, especially his daughter.
