Heath Ledger is gone but not forgotten.
The Australian actor’s family accepted an award from the Australian Film Institute on Saturday.
Ledger’s father, Kim, his mother Sally and his sister Kate accepted the best actor award for Heath for his haunting role as The Joker in this summer’s Batman installment, The Dark Knight, according to the AP.
“It’s been without a doubt the most difficult year, losing such a loved family member,” Kate Ledger said.
She accepted the award on behalf of Matilda Ledger, Heath’s 3-year-old daughter with Michelle Williams: “We are so proud of him and humbly accept this award on behalf of his beautiful daughter, who we will cherish forever.”
Ledger died in January 2007 of an accidental drug overdose.
