'Whenever there is a moment when I need clarity in creation I always say "What would Dad do?"': Tori was very open as she even addressed her father personally in he post even saying that she still tries to put herself in his shoes
'Working on something I know you’ll be very proud of. And, whenever there is a moment when I need clarity in creation I always say "What would Dad do?"'
No doubt she is proud of her father's legacy as she listed many of his accomplishments including his work on legendary shows like The Love Boat, Charlie's Angels, The Mod Squad, and 7th Heaven.
As there was a rumored fallout between Tori and Candy Spelling, before Aarons death, the actress proved there was no ill will between the two as she praised her mother in the post.
She wrote: 'Mom @candyspelling would make you so proud. She is so dedicated and hardworking and amazing as a Broadway Producer.'

Candy was left the bulk of his $600 million fortune when he passed away in 2006.
Through it all Tori gushed about her father as she said: 'He was the ultimate underdog that never gave up. He made glamour and gloss but also made heart and family like no other!
'All of that and he was an amazing husband, father, friend, and doting dog parent.'
One wish Tori did have, however, is that Aaron was around longer to spend time with his grandchildren.
'My only regret is that you aren’t here to physically spend time with all of your beautiful grandkids': One wish Tori did have, however, is that Aaron was around longer to spend time with his grandchildren, as they are pictured together in May 2005
She said: 'My only regret is that you aren’t here to physically spend time with all of your beautiful grandkids.
'Between your incredible son @randyspelling ( who is such a loving father and husband and a true inspiration to everyone he works with and all the lives he touches) and myself we’ve created 7 amazing beings and the big loving families you loved to create on tv. But, we know you smile from above and watch over them all.'
Tori will be joining several of her old co-stars - including Jennie Garth, Jason Priestley, Brian Austin Green, Gabrielle Carteris and Ian Ziering - for the Beverly Hills, 90210 revival which will air this summer.
