On May 16, 2024, our hearts were filled with sorrow as we said goodbye to Patricia D. Padilla, a beloved wife, mother, sister, and friend. Patricia was born on June 12, 1974, in Nashville, TN, to the late, Arvin Neil and Mary Jean (Barnes) Meadows; and passed away in Dickson TN. She was surrounded by her loving family at her residence when she peacefully left this world.

Throughout her life, Patricia brought immense joy and laughter to those around her. She had a passion of watching game shows, engaging in lively phone conversations, singing her heart out, spending time with her three cherished sisters, and relishing the thrill of roller skating and gambling.

Patricia will be dearly missed by all who knew her. She is survived by her husband Joseph Padilla; daughters Krista Ashley and Morgan Duncan; step-sons Joey (Michelle) Padilla and C.J. Ashley; step-daughters Sabrina Padilla (Manual) Hernandez and Brianna Ashley; sisters, Angela Teague and Tracy Meadows; as well as her adored grandchildren Cairo, Kaylee, Zachary, Kyler, Kiana, and Ryder.

In addition to her parents, Patricia was preceded in death by her son, Cody Len Ashley and her sister, Kimberly Meadows-Roberts.

 Visitation will be Friday, May 24th, 2024 from 10:00 AM until the hour of service at 2:00 PM at Dickson Funeral Home & Cremation Center in Dickson, TN; Interment will follow in Union Cemetery in Dickson, TN.

As we come together to celebrate the beautiful life of Patricia D. Padilla and bid our final farewells during these services, let us remember her warmth, kindness, and unwavering love that will live on in our hearts forever. May she rest in eternal peace.
