She worked at Liggett and Meyers tobacco company for many years. Later she served with conviction on her condominium board.
At the end of her battle with cancer, she, with all her family present, courageously decided, there would be no more treatments. She died less than 2 days later.
Family and friends could not deny her huge and loving heart. She adored her grandchildren and loved spending time with them. She lived through her family. They were her whole world.
Survived by son, Mark Edward Payton, his wife, Jennifer Lyons Payton and three grandchildren Eve, Oliver and Noah Payton
