Furious 7 can now be seen in theaters worldwide and one person that surely comes to mind is Paul Walker. Walker, best known as Brian O' Connor from the Fast and Furious franchise, was a missing figure in premieres and cast appearances but was someone who is not forgotten.

It will be recalled that Paul Walker died in a car accident in November of 2013, an untimely death which shocked the world. Questions cropped up on whether Furious 7 would still continue or not. But through the help of Walker's brothers, Cody and Caleb, the film was finally able to be completed.

Walker's family was in attendance when Furious 7 premiered in Los Angeles.

Moreover, left to inherit Paul's fortunes was 16-year old Meadow Walker. Friend and co-star Tyrese Gibson recently gave an update on Meadow, bearing that she is slowly getting her life back on track.

Meadow had lived with her father for two years before the tragic passing. She is the only child and sole beneficiary of Paul Walker's fortune.

After her dad's death, Meadow was staying with her grandmother, Cheryl Walker before eventually moving to a separate home where she now lives with mother Rebecca Soteros. Meadow was only 15 before her dad's tragic passing.

According to Gibson, Meadow is currently focusing on her education and spends a lot of quality time with her friends.

Emotions flew high when the film was shown. Gibson for his part posted a photo on Instagram saying that it was hard to savor the film's success without Paul around.

Vin Diesel, another main character for Furious 7, paid tribute by naming his newborn daughter Pauline as tribute to Paul Walker. He explains that when time came for him to think of a name, all he thought about was Paul Walker.

Furious 7 includes a tribute to Paul Walker at the end of the film so don't forget to catch that.
