Payton was the aunt of Tristan and Xavier Brown. Payton was the niece of Isreal Strain (Rena) and Stacey Strain-Fahey (Michael). She will also be dearly missed by many cousins and friends.
Payton was a ball of energy and the life of every party. She loved barrel racing and especially her horse, Jack. She played softball and loved to swim. Payton loved music and dancing to Tik Toks. She was a big animal lover and never met a stranger. Our house will be so quiet without our baby girl.
