It is with the heaviest of hearts that my siblings and I share the unexpected passing of our beloved mother, Teresita Padilla, on May 30, 2025. The shock and pain of this sudden loss have left our family devastated and searching for comfort in one another and in the memories we cherish.

As we navigate this incredibly difficult time, we are doing our best to cover the costs of funeral arrangements. To honor our mother’s beautiful life and legacy, we hope to host a reception where friends and family can gather, remember, and celebrate the love she shared with all of us.

Teresita was more than just a mother—she was a devoted grandmother, a loving wife, a caring sister, and a true friend to so many. Her warmth, kindness, and unwavering support touched everyone who knew her. We miss her deeply every single day.

We are profoundly grateful for the outpouring of prayers, condolences, and support from our community. Your words and gestures have brought us comfort during this painful time. For those who have asked how they can help, we have created this GoFundMe page. Any contribution, no matter the amount, would mean so much to us and help us honor our mother in the way she deserves.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for standing with us, for your love, and for keeping Teresita’s memory alive.

With gratitude,

Teresita’s loving family
