Vanessa also sent a few Snapchats from Greg’s memorial service, including one of a group of people dancing. Over it, she wrote, "This is how you celebrate a life." In another, she used a filter to write "LOVE YOU" on the screen.
Meanwhile, her little sister, Stella Hudgens, has been posting similarly sweet posts. "I don't know what to say. Thank you so much for the support," Stella tweeted. "I will miss my dad, but I’m so glad to have had such an amazing man in my life."
She also Instagrammed an old photo of her father working as a firefighter.
Greg died one day before Vanessa's debut as Rizzo in Grease: Live, but the High School Musical alum continued on, dedicating her performance to her father. Afterwards, Stella wrote, "I know daddy is smiling down on you."
"I can't believe @gogrease is OVER!" Vanessa later posted. "Thank you to everyone who watched and supported me last night. Doing #greaselive was one of the most incredible experiences and I'm so glad you guys liked it as much as I did. Till next time Rizz..."
