In Memory of Paul Walker

We, your Celebrity Man Meat bloggers, are dedicating this post to the memory of Paul Walker.
This is not because we had him listed in our Man Meat ranks, not that he didn't completely deserve our top honors, he was beautiful, but simply because he was young and talented and taken from us at such a young age.


Paul Walker, most well-known for his role in the Fast and Furious movie franchise, was not only an amazing actor but a charitable philanthropist as well. He aided disaster victims in other countries and spearheaded events to help raise money for the cause. A cause he supported up till the very end. He was driving from an event when the tragic accident occurred. 


Along with Paul Walker, driver and friend Roger Rodas was killed in the horrific accident as well. They did what they loved together. 

Due to the enjoyment he felt and his love affair with the 10 second car. He even asked for part of his payment from one of the Fast and Furious movies to be the car  in the picture above. 

His friend and costar and all around tough-guy Tyrese was broken down in sobs that showed how much he's going to miss his friend. Seems their deep friendship in the movies wasn't an act at all. 
Vin Diesel his costar in the franchise, posted this tribute to Paul on his official Instagram. Calling Paul not his friend but his brother and saying all he could at this horrible time. He will miss Paul terribly.

There are no words that can sum up the amount of sadness from fans and friends alike. Fans on twitter have simply put up photos of the crash due to a loss for what to say. 


More than anything, we wish to offer our condolences to those who were directly affected by the passing of both men.

It's like he knew. It gives me goosebumps. I hope his quote was true. He went out living fast and truly living. Doing something he loved.

Paul has a daughter that will miss him the most. Meadow Walker, in the grief of her loss she posted this below on her twitter. 
                                          
She is 15 now and a very sad daughter to a very loving and attentive Father. 

Vin said the only thing we can think of and that's you will be sorely missed. 

He did exactly that. Lived fast, and died way too young. 
Kindest regards to everyone, and condolences.
