Friday marks the 14th anniversary of the September 11th attacks, and many people have turned to social media to share remembrances, personal experiences and tributes.

Saturday Night Live cast member Pete Davidson, who joined the show in 2014, marked the anniversary with a touching tribute to his father, a firefight who died on duty during the attacks.

The comedian first tweeted a picture of himself and his father when he was quite young, captioning with a slightly NSFW joke. "Can't believe its been 14 years," he tweeted. "I remember seeing ur gigantic (expletive) like it was just yesterday. RIP Dad #NeverForget."

Davidson followed that up with a slightly more somber tweet:

All jokes aside. There's not a day that goes by where I dont think of u. Ur my hero. Cant wait to see u again someday pic.twitter.com/uzgmCH45be — Pete Davidson (@petedavidson) September 11, 2015
