PAYTON, Twindalyn Marie -age 58, lovingly known as "Twin," graced this world with her presence on October 28, 1965, in Cincinnati, Ohio, and after a life rich with laughter and love, departed peacefully on November 29, 2023, in Dayton, Ohio. Her warmth and vivacious spirit will be profoundly missed by all who knew her.
Twin was a beacon of light to her family, a dedicated mother, sister, and grandmother whose love knew no bounds. She leaves behind a legacy of joy and caring in the hearts of her cherished daughter, Nikita Phillips; God Daughter Jasma Allen-James, her devoted brothers, Donald Payton and Tom Walls; her adoring sisters, Alma and Marcy Walls; and her four treasured grandchildren, Laron, Antjuan, Deavonnie, and Lakita. A beloved aunt, she also leaves a host of nieces and nephews who will hold her memory dear. Twin's life was shaped by the love of her late parents, Verda “Jill” Payton and Tom Walls, and her sister Candy, who preceded her in death.
Twin's formative years were spent walking the halls of Dunbar High School, where she cultivated lifelong friendships and laid the groundwork for her future. Her professional life was marked by dedication and hard work until she was recently disabled, yet she continued to inspire those around her with her resilience and positive outlook.
Twin's personal life was a tapestry of her passions and the people she loved. Her laughter was infectious, her sense of humor was a source of endless joy, and her thoughtfulness touched the lives of many. Whether she was spending time with her family, sharing moments with friends, or pampering her beloved dog, Bailey, Twin embraced every day with zeal and gratitude.
Those who knew Twin will remember her for her loving nature, her funny anecdotes that could light up any room, and her thoughtful gestures that made everyone feel special. She had a unique ability to create a sense of belonging and comfort, making her home a hub of warmth and happiness.
As we bid farewell to Twindalyn Marie Payton, we celebrate the remarkable woman she was and the indelible impact she made on the world. Her spirit, so full of love and laughter, will continue to guide and inspire us. Twin's story is not one of sorrow, but a beautiful narrative of a life well-lived and a woman deeply loved.
We find solace in the memories we share, the stories we will continue to tell, and the profound influence she had on our lives. Twindalyn Marie Payton's legacy will be cherished and honored for generations to come.
