Walker's \"Fast & Furious\" co-star Vin Diesel also shared a message about how much their time together onset meant to him.

\"So much to tell you... so much to share... ,\" Diesel wrote, along with a pic of him in front of a pic of Walker.

He added details on all the new \"Furious\" cast members and how Walker would love the new on-screen family Diesel now has.

\"John Cena was there, who you would just love. His gratitude is palpable... and knowing you, you would just want him to win,\" he wrote.

So much to tell you... so much to share... as you know, we have been filming in Scotland. We threw a party for the crew last night in appreciation for all of their hard work. It was one of those moments that so often in the past we were together smiling and getting everyone drunk, especially Justin. Haha. Who by the way would make you so proud with what he is accomplishing with this film. Nathalie was there, in her loving spirit. Oh, and John Cena was there, who you would just love. His gratitude is palpable... and knowing you, you would just want him to win. This week the studio came to meet about the next chapter, your ears were ringing again. You would have gotten a kick out of the fact that we met in a chapel. It was profound... normally today I would be planning how to embarrass you with a birthday cake. Haha. Instead I reflect on how lucky I am to call you my brother. The tears never go away, but they change... from that of mourning to that of grace. We only hope to make you proud. Speaking of which, guess what message I woke up to... your daughter. Meadow sending me love on this day. Wow, she knows me so well. She has your heart. Happy birthday... it’s amazing, but somehow you continue to make the world a better place.

He then turned the message to what it means to not have his best friend here on what would be a very special day.

\"Normally today I would be planning how to embarrass you with a birthday cake. Haha. Instead I reflect on how lucky I am to call you my brother. The tears never go away, but they change... from that of mourning to that of grace. We only hope to make you proud,\" he added.

In fact, Diesel wrote that he and Meadow connected on this important day.

\"Guess what message I woke up to... your daughter. Meadow sending me love on this day. Wow, she knows me so well. She has your heart. Happy birthday... it’s amazing, but somehow you continue to make the world a better place,\" he closed.

Cody Walker, Paul's Brother, and Meadow both commented with heart emojis after the touching tribute.
