The world was recently shaken by the heartbreaking news of the passing of Neyde Senna, the beloved mother of Formula 1 legend Ayrton Senna da Silva..
In a deeply emotional statement, Milton da Silva, Ayrton’s father and Neyde’s husband of many decades, expressed his profound grief over the loss of his life partner. He lamented, saying:
“My heart aches in ways words cannot describe. Neyde was the anchor of our family, the rock that supported us through all the trials and triumphs of life. She was not only a devoted wife and loving mother but also a symbol of strength, grace, and unyielding love. Our journey together, from raising our children to witnessing Ayrton’s successes, was filled with beautiful memories, and I feel a part of me has left with her. I miss her dearly, and the void she leaves behind is unbearable.”
Milton reflected on their shared life and how Neyde stood by him and their family, especially during the toughest times, including the tragic loss of their son Ayrton in 1994. The couple had shown immense resilience after Ayrton’s untimely death, turning their grief into action by continuing the charitable work initiated in his memory through the Ayrton Senna Institute.
The passing of Neyde marks another sombre chapter for the Senna family, but it also brings to light the close-knit bond that held them together through thick and thin. Neyde was a beacon of love for Ayrton, Milton, and the entire family. Her influence was not just felt within her family but extended into the hearts of those who knew her through her involvement in charitable and community endeavours.
As the Senna family mourns the loss of Neyde, condolences from around the world have poured in, recognising the profound impact that she, as the mother of one of the greatest Formula 1 drivers, had on so many. Her spirit, kindness, and love will forever be remembered.
Milton, in his heartfelt message, expressed gratitude to those who have supported them during this difficult time and promised to continue honouring Neyde’s memory by upholding the values she cherished.
Neyde Senna’s legacy will live on, not just through her family but through the countless lives she touched. Rest in peace, Neyde. You will be deeply missed.
