William Boomer Brandon Peyton

William Brandon “Boomer” Peyton was born January 9, 1983, in Decatur, Texas, the eldest of triplet boys. He spent the first 33 months of his life in Cook Children’s Hospital and was one of the first children in Texas to come home on a ventilator. The doctors always said he would not survive to age 6, but he far exceeded all expectations! Boomer lived 30 wonderful years before returning to his heavenly home on November 27, 2013.
 
Boomer grew up in Bridgeport, Texas and moved to Weatherford with his mom and brother in 1993 to live on the family farm. He graduated from Weatherford High School in 2004 and took classes at Weatherford College in computers, photography, and Spanish. Boomer spent many years actively competing in Special Olympics, winning 26 medals during his athletic career. Boomer loved travelling, visiting with friends and family, and marveling in the simplest joys of creation. He was an active member of Emmanuel Baptist Church and loved to serve with the children’s ministries and sing in the choir.
 
Boomer was preceded in death by triplet brother, Johnathan Stephan, when they were three-months old and his beloved “Paco,” William Lon Clark, a few months ago. He is survived by his mother, Debra Peyton, brother Austin Matthew and sister-in-law Windy Dawn Peyton, grandmother Mary “Nana” Clark, Uncle Tim and Aunt Terri Thompson, Uncle Paul and Aunt Tina Pulley, cousins Ashley and Jeffery Hogan, Clayton and Melissa Rhine, Marissa, Louisa, and Rebecca Pulley, “nieces” Baeleigh Hogan and Hynlee Rhine, and his devoted canine companions “Buddy” and “Charlie.”
 
Boomer’s family would like to thank his hospice nurses, especially Kelley, Destani, and Mary, as well as Dr. Julee Morrow, Dr. Nancy Dambro, and his many friends from Cook Children’s Hospital.

A celebration of his life will be held on Wednesday, December 4,
2013 at 11:00 a.m. at Emmanuel Baptist Church in Weatherford, Texas.
A
reception will immediately follow so friends and loved ones can gather
to share memories and funny stories of a life well lived.
