Ann Padula of Fall River, passed away peacefully on Monday, December 15, 2025 at home surrounded by her loving family.

Born Ann Marie Botelho on December 7, 1936, in Fall River, MA, she was a resilient woman who lived her life with an unwavering dedication to her core values of integrity, wisdom, and love.

Ann's remarkable journey from a simple upbringing in Fall River, MA, to becoming a Vice President in the banking industry is a testament to her resilience, determination, and astute intellect.

She is survived by her loving children, son Michael Padula, and daughter Lisa Padula, who were her pride and joy. They will forever cherish their mother's memory, and her enduring love. Ann was preceded in death by her father, Joseph Botelho, and her mother, Margaret, who instilled in her the values of hard work, humility, and kindness that she carried throughout her life.
