As the one-year anniversary of Paul Walker's passing approaches, his brother Cody Walker reflects on the positive work of Reach Out Worldwide (ROWW), the charity founded by Paul, has done since. Speaking to E! Online, Cody said, "ROWW continues to be, to function, to help others even after our primary contributor, my brother, Paul Walker has passed. I know he would be so stoked to know that. ROWW changed his life, and he was so proud of it."
ROWW has provided relief in the Philippines after a typhoon, assisted the people of Mayflower, Arkansas after a tornado, stuffed back-to-school packs and run a holiday toy drive in the past 12 months. "These missions are truly life changing for all involved," Cody reflected, "I'm so proud to be a part of this... This year has been very challenging but also extremely rewarding. ROWW would like to thank all of our supporters who have gotten us through this very difficult year."
He added, "Thanks to you, Paul's legacy lives on through ROWW. I am so lucky to have had him as a big brother."
When asked about what people need to learn from Paul, Cody replied, "Just live your life to the fullest. Laugh a lot, love and find your true happiness. Remember that no matter how cool you think you may be, you're not cool enough to look down on anyone... ever."
Paul passed away in a fiery car crash on November 30, 2013. His friend Roger Rodas who drove the car was also killed in the crash.
