Not only was Paul Walker a actor, he was a true automotive enthusiast, father, charitable celebrity, and an all-around down-to-earth guy. Prior to Saturday’s crash, Walker was taking part in a charity event just outside of Los Angeles for his organization to raise money for the Philippines typhoon relief effort.

He was loved by many.
