Bobby was my Sergeant on the morning shift at District one. He had just been promoted to sergeant He was a great supervisor. I had met Booby through my brother who had worked with Bobby at District four.. He was always a soft spoken gentleman. . Eternal rest, grant onto Bobby, OH LORD….
A fine gentleman and good police officer.
Sgt. Padilla was my sergeant in the Child Abuse Unit for a little over 7 years. Sgt. Padilla was a good man with a heart of gold. Sgt. Padilla was a man that I truly respected. I was very sadden to learn about his passing. Sgt. Padilla, you will be remembered and may you rest in peace.
We were saddened to hear of Robert's passing, and our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.
I'm a retired Police Detective & my wife worked in the building and we both got to work with Sergeant Padilla. May his soul Rest In Peace 🙏🏼
I remember Bobby from working Dist 1 with him. He usually had a smile and a good word for everyone. We separated, I was assigned to the Info desk for a short period of time and Bobby made Sgt. After that we would see each other at the HQ Bldg and I always enjoyed speaking with Bobby. The is a great guy.
