Jose Medardo Padilla, 29, of San Francisco passed unexpectedly on 2/7/22 after a fatal fishing accident. We are devastated by this loss and completely unprepared.

Born on 12/9/1992 to loving parents Guillermina Ulloa and Jose Porfirio Padilla, Jose Padilla Ulloa immediately filled the lives of those around him with joy. He immigrated to the US from Honduras at age 15. He worked at Restaurant Gary Danko from 2008 until the COVID-19 Pandemic forced them to close in 2020. At age 17, he worked while his father lost his battle to liver cancer. Afterward, Jose continued working while he got his GED in 2016 and went on to pursue a degree in Biotechnology at CCSF. He successfully completed his degree in 2021 but continued to take classes in order to transfer to University. Jose was a loving uncle and cousin and adored his family and friends. Jose was passionate about soccer and fishing as well as helping others however he could. His presence is sorely missed and his loss is deeply felt. Jose is predeceased by his father Jose Porfirio. He is survived by his fiancé Shauna Hinson, his mother Guillermina and his 4 siblings. He was found just before sunset on 2/11/22 and his final resting place is in Las Lajas, Comayagua,  Honduras.
