“I have no words to express the sadness I feel right now,” writes Wilson. “My father @brianwilsonlive was every fiber of my body. He will be remembered by millions and millions until the world ends. I am lucky to have been his daughter and had a soul connection with him that will live on always. I’ve never felt this kind of pain before, but I know he’s resting up there in heaven… or maybe playing the piano for Grandma Audree, his mom. I will post something else soon, but this is all my hands will let me type. I love you, daddy….I miss you so much already.”
