Our beloved Peyton Samuel Myers of Franklin, Tennessee passed away on January 8, 2026, at the age of 21. On September 7, 2004, Peyton came into our world with blond curls at a whopping 10.8 pounds and never stopped growing, topping out at 6’10”. Peyton attended Nolensville High School and Tennessee Tech. He loved cars, football, golf, music, and the color blue (like his eyes).
Peyton was a man of deep kindness and compassion. Whether with family, friends, or his community, he was a generous soul who consistently placed the needs of others above his own.
He is preceded in death by his maternal grandmother Sandra Kay Alcorn and paternal grandfather Terrance Kit Myers.
He is survived by his parents, Richard Charles & Angela Reneé Myers, and siblings: Victoria Alcorn, Brecken Renee’, Charles Spurgeon, & sister-in-law Annabelle; maternal grandparents Frank & Sue Alcorn, paternal grandmother Chris Pettit; and many loving aunts, uncles, and cousins.
The family would like to thank everyone for the prayers, messages, calls, food, flowers, and donations.
Visitation with the family is from 12:00 pm -2:00 pm on Thursday January 15, followed by a memorial service at 2:30 pm at Woodlawn-Roesch-Patton Funeral Home 660 Thompson Lane, Nashville, TN 37204.
