Our mom, Anna Padilla, lived her life with an open heart and a fierce love for her family. A devoted wife, mother of four, cherished Oma to twelve grandchildren, and Great-Oma to thirteen great-grandchildren, she poured her whole soul into the people she loved.

She was forever grateful for CHOC, whose care and compassion helped save her great-grandson Weston Pepper and supported our family during a difficult time. Their kindness, expertise, and unwavering presence meant more to her than words could ever express.

In honor of her generous spirit—and in lieu of flowers—we invite you to donate to CHOC in her name. Your gift will help continue the work she held so dear: protecting children, supporting families, and giving others the same hope our family was given.

Thank you for helping us celebrate her legacy of love, gratitude, and giving. Together, we can make a meaningful difference in the lives of children and families who need it most.
