Nearly a decade after Paul Walker's tragic passing, his memory lives on in the newest member of the family. Cody Walker, one of Paul's younger brothers, and his wife, Felicia, have welcomed a baby boy into the world. They have chosen to name their son Paul Barrett Walker, fondly referred to as Bear.
As Cody explains, the 10-year anniversary of Paul's death, approaching in November, felt like the right time for this heartfelt tribute. The couple of proud parents also have a 5-year-old daughter and a 2-year-old son.
The name Paul William Walker holds significance in the family, passed down through four generations. Although Paul, who was called 'Little Paul' or 'Paul 4,' eventually outgrew his father in height, the name remained an essential part of his identity.
Cody and his other brother, Caleb, both stepped in to continue Paul's legacy in the film industry. They served as stand-ins and body doubles for the 2015 movie 'Furious 7,' following Paul's untimely death in a car accident in 2013.
Notably, Vin Diesel, a fellow 'Fast & Furious' actor, named his daughter Paulina in 2015 as a touching homage to Paul Walker. Cody has also been actively involved with Paul's nonprofit, Reach Out Worldwide, providing disaster relief efforts.
Throughout his life, Paul made lasting impressions on people around him. As a celebrated actor and genuinely caring individual, his memory lives on through his loved ones, including their newest addition, Bear.
