Peyton was a joy to be around, she was one of the biggest jokesters—always being goofy. Even though she was a jokester, she had a caring side---she was always genuine, sweet, and kind. She had a huge heart with a smile that lit up any room! She had a deep love for her family, especially her sissy's. She found lots of joy in helping take care of her nieces and nephews. She not only loved her family but she also had a love for animals, she especially had a partiality for cows. Peyton will be missed dearly, and will leave a void in the hearts of all who were privileged to know her.
