"Your footsteps give me direction. I'll walk the rest in a purposeful way." He wrote subtitles for the collage. "I love your dad."

Jeff Sperbeck, 62, died of injuries in a golf car accident in California. The Riverside County Coroner's Office ruled that his death was accidental due to blunt head trauma.

"The cause of death is 'blunt head trauma', the way of death is 'accidental', the way of death (how the injury occurs) is 'passenger fell out of the golf cart,'" said the Coroner Bureau in a statement obtained on Fox News' digital numbers earlier this month.
