Francisco (“Kiko”) Javier Padilla
Francisco (“Kiko”) Javier Padilla, passed away on Tuesday, April 7, 2020 in League City, Texas, at the age of 30 years old.
He was born on September 26, 1989 in Galveston, Texas, to the parents of Raquel and Frank Padilla.
There is so much to say about this loving young man. Kiko was everyone’s bodyguard and friend. He enjoyed making people laugh, spending time with his loved ones, and took great pride in his work as an employee of Burlington Coat Factory. Although a towering figure, Kiko was a gentle soul, who inspired others to reach for their dreams. If not at work, the gym, or with his friends, he could be found spending time with his mom, watching one of their favorite shows together or playing Red Dead Redemption on his X-box.
Survived by Raquel Padilla and his sisters, Cristina and Danielle Padilla.
Due to public gathering restriction a private Visitation by his immediate family and close friends will be held on Saturday, April 11, 2020.
He will be buried at Forest Park East Cemetery at 21620 Gulf Fwy, Webster, TX 77598.
A memorial service to celebrate his life will be held at a later date.
In lieu of flowers, the family prefers donations to be made in Kiko’s honor to the National Suicide Prevention Lifeline, an organization that held special meaning for him, as he himself fundraised for friends he lost to suicide.
Our heartfelt condolences to the family.

Kiko was a beautiful soul inside and out. I had the privilege of knowing Kiko through my brother, and through that time he was nothing but a respectful and sweet human being. Kiko alway carried himself with grace, dignity, and so much love. He will be greatly missed beyond words. We love you so much sweet boy, and you will never be forgotten.

Kiko, I never had the privilege to know you but your mother talked about you so much and in so loving way that I have the impression I knew you. I am so sorry. I cannot even imagine her pain and your sisters’ pain. I am so sorry
Kiko, my friend, “The Godfather” I’m lucky to be able to have the memories we’ve shared, there are so many! I miss you.. Such a beautiful, kind hearted, charismatic soul.. Honestly one of the best friends anyone could ask for, if you needed him, he was there without question and with a smile on his face.. Forever “the inner circle” ..
I love you dear friend.
