Peyton McIntyre, Ashmont—Peyton McIntyre is facing the final stages of his battle with stage 4 cancer, leaving his family and community in deep sorrow. Diagnosed in early March 2024, Peyton fought bravely, enduring quadruple doses of chemotherapy that initially showed promise. However, despite these efforts, the cancer returned with greater severity, and Peyton’s condition rapidly deteriorated.
His family, including his wife of 54 years, June McIntyre, is struggling to cope with both the emotional and financial burdens of this difficult time. The cost of funeral arrangements, along with travel expenses for June and their loved ones, has become overwhelming. A fundraiser organized by Ashley McIntyre and Richard McDonald was created yesterday to help ease these financial pressures, with a goal of $20,000. So far, $470 has been raised through the kindness of five donors.
Peyton, who has been described as a beloved husband, father, grandfather, and great-grandfather, has been surrounded by his family during these final days. Despite the heartbreak, they have been able to share precious moments together, cherishing the love and memories they’ve built over the years. On August 12th, Peyton was having a good day with his family but suddenly could no longer walk or sit up after taking a nap. Following multiple emergency transports and medical examinations, it was discovered that his cancer had spread significantly, leaving him with just days to live.
The community has shown its support through social media and donations. Kim McIver donated $200, sharing her compassion during this difficult time. Courtney Buhler contributed $50, while Safar Heydari and Megan McLean each donated $100. Erin Shaw also offered $20 to help ease the burden on the McIntyre family.
Karen Leigh McDonald shared on Facebook, “Please share my friends,” calling on the community to support the McIntyre family during this heart-wrenching time.
We extend our deepest condolences to the McIntyre family. Our thoughts and prayers are with them, hoping for peace and comfort during these final days with Peyton.
