The actor took to Facebook yesterday to share with fans that he paid a visit to Walker's mom after the news of what happened broke and shared a part of their conversation.
"When I heard, I immediately flew back to California, and went directly from the plane to his mother's house...," Diesel wrote. "I thought they needed my strength, but realized when I got there and broke down before his family, that it was I who needed theirs."
He continued, "His mother hugged me and said I am so sorry... I said sorry? You're the mother who lost a son?... She said yes, but you lost your other half..."
"To live in the hearts we leave behind, is not to die," the actor quoted Thomas Campbell on his Facebook page in speaking out for the first time about the death of his longtime friend.
"Pablo, I wish you could see the world right now... and the profound impact, your full life has had on it, on Us... on me...I will always love you Brian, as the brother you were... on and off screen."
