Thank you for sharing all of the wonderful photos of your nephew. He is absolutely adorable and looks to be following in his uncle’s footsteps with that “killer smile” and sparkle in his eye. I remember hearing you say during an interview that being an uncle was fabulous. Being an aunt myself…I’d have to agree with this statement! I love being able to spoil my 3 nieces and 1 nephew. In about 8 weeks, there will be a second nephew to add to the mix. The holidays are always great when you get to watch them through children’s eyes. Glad to know that you had a fantastic holiday with your family and friends. One of the most important things in life is spending time with your family and friends (not just during the holidays) as they can get you through the most difficult times in your life. I continue to send prayers your way!

Love the article Amy. Love that you think about us Helio.

If I see you at TMS in June, I’ll be the idiot who’ll come up to you, ask to have one of my pictures that I made in my art class signed, and look like I do when I see the cute checker at Market Basket.

Amy, thank you for sharing that article. It was a nice read, not only because he acknowledges our support and prayers, but his expressions about the importance of family was beautiful. I am so glad his family is with him now and he is surrounded by his friends.

Hi Helio – you surely got a cutie pie of a nephew! Kelly is right – Kati should send his picture
in those baby product and parent/s magazines. He has a happy infectious smile like you!

BTW, there is still some confusion on how to spell your nephew’s name. I read long time ago, in one
of your interviews that it’s EDOARDO and that’s what I was writing all the time. Or, is it the
American way – “Eduardo”?

BIG HUGS from one of your fans.

I agree with Kelly that you are INDY it was so great to see you dancing at Iowa in the pits. Eduardo is such a cutie and happy baby he is that way because of all the love you and your family give him. HAPPY WEEK is right. Keep the faith still saying our prayers for you and your family.

Your fan forever

Kati should send some photos of baby Eduardo to Gerber or Johnston & Johnston. He’s definitely got the smile, demeanor and gleam in his eyes that will look good in a commercial or on the cover of baby products. Don’t forget Parents magazine too. He’s beautiful!

Helio,

I was so happy to hear that Team Penske is backing you 100% and can’t wait for you to get the trial behind you and you getting back in the #3 car.

Continuing to keep you and your family in my prayers.

All the best, stay safe!

Hi Helio -
Now I know why you titled your last blog “Happy Week”. In addition to continuing to be
Mr. Positive despite what life gives you, you show a lot of class and guts. I am happy to see you again on video and hear your voice. It’s OK to show some emotions – you are human like us.
I know this is a very difficult time for you and your family but I will continue to pray
for you and your family. I am also 100% behind you. I believe in your innocence, and the
difficulty of understanding the English language….You are blessed, Helio, surrounded by good
family support and real friends. Am glad to hear that Team Penske is backing you 100%.
Thank God for that.

Dear Helio,
Please be assured that all my prayers and thoughts are with you. No matter the outcome of your current ordeal, you can be proud of what you accomplished. Never look back and never let anybody put you down. Keep your chin up. You do not deserve what is happening to you but sometimes life is unfair and the justice system in this country is anything but about justice. Healthy blessings from a French-American. Herve
