It has been a year since the tragic death of Paul Walker. Now, his "Fast and Furious" family are airing their love for the late actor once again by sharing memorable photos. However, there's one cast member who may have taken the situation to heart more and she plans on semi-retiring. 

Vin Diesel has always been vocal about his love for Walker. In his Facebook page, he shared a beautiful photo of the late actor, who he calls "Pablo," with his daughter. The photo is captioned with Diesel's special message that says: 

He was a part of so much in my life...babysitting the Alpha Angel...he took a certain pride in being uncle Pablo...after all, we were filming a scene in I the day she was born, and he being the only one I told. 

He was an important part of my transition into fatherhood...that healthy family member, with the most positive outlook on life... 

A year ago today... a year of mourning... and his absence still leaves me speechless. We miss you Pablo..." 

Walker's 15-year old daughter Meadow also took to Instagram to share a photo of her with her father when she was still a baby. The beautiful photo is simply captioned "I love you." 

I love you

But for Michelle Rodriguez, the whole ordeal has been tough on her and has affected her in a bigger way. 

She told London Evening Standard, "I had so much heartbreak last year that I am taking a year off to do something different, like write." 

Rodriguez explains that she has always wanted to write for film and movies. And because of the year of heartbreak she has experienced, this may just be the perfect time to do it. She also said that she wants to take a break from acting for a year and that "hopefully, in a couple of years, it will pay off." 

"Furious 7" will be released April 3, 2015. It is still unsure if this will be the last installment of the franchise.
