Meadow Walker is remembering her dad Paul Walker on the 12th anniversary of his death.

On Sunday, Nov. 30, the only child of the late actor celebrated her father by sharing a series of throwback photos from her childhood on Instagram.

In snaps, which were seemingly taken on Meadow’s birthday, the Fast & Furious star could be seen holding up a dessert with candles in it as Meadow perched on a countertop.

The father-daughter duo then appeared to be about to share a kiss in the second sweet shot, with Meadow flashing a cheesy grin directly at the camera in the third photo as her dad gazed at her while smiling.

“12 years without you… I love you forever,” Meadow captioned the post.

Presley Gerber, the son Cindy Crawford and Rande Gerber, and Lisa Rinna and Harry Hamlin’s daughter Delilah Belle were among those sending love to fellow model Meadow, 27, in the comments section, with both sharing a single love heart emoji.

Paul died on Nov. 30, 2013, at the age of 40. He was killed in a car crash shortly after leaving an event for Reach Out WorldWide (ROWW), the humanitarian organization he founded, in California.

In September, Meadow marked what would have been the actor’s 52nd birthday.

Sharing a black-and-white photo of herself sitting on her father’s lap, Meadow captioned the Sept. 12 Instagram post, “Happy birthday daddy. I love you endlessly and miss you every day.”

The snap showed Paul wearing a rugby shirt, jeans and Converse sneakers as he appeared to take off one of his daughter’s shoes.

Paul’s longtime Fast & Furious costar Vin Diesel wrote in the comments section, “🙏🏽.”

On what would have been her dad’s 51st birthday, Meadow shared another throwback photo of the two of them from when she was a child and called her father her “forever guardian angel.”

Ahead of the 10th anniversary of Paul’s death, his brother Cody Walker told PEOPLE that the late actor would be “so proud” of the woman Meadow has become.
