TOMAH, Wis. (WKBT) – Payton Pierce, a 16-year old girl from Tomah, is well-loved around the Tomah community.
“Payton is one of those people who is always there for anyone who needs her. She’s one of those people who you can’t be around without smiling,” said Payton’s friend, Peyton Foster.
Payton continues to recover in a Madison hospital from severe injuries that happened in a car crash earlier this month.
Her friends wanted to make sure they were there for her.
“My initial instinct was oh my goodness how can I help how can I show my love for Payton,” Foster said.
Thursday evening, at the Tomah high School Varsity baseball game against Adams-Friendship, the community poured out love and support wearing purple shirts for Payton. The Tomah boys wore 'Playing for Payton' t-shirts during the game.
