Peyton Baumgarth, 13, is being remembered by family and friends as someone who was kind and compassionate, but a real jokester.
An 8th grader at Washington Middle School in Franklin County died from complications caused by the coronavirus, marking the first death under the age of 18 in Missouri.
Stephanie, his mother, said she tested positive for the coronavirus on October 26 and that Peyton was presumed to have the virus because he was showing symptoms. She said he didn't have any underlying condition, but his condition declined rapidly.
"He just wasn't getting any better and his condition was getting much worse, to the point he needed medical attention,"she said. Peyton was admitted to SSM Cardinal Glennon Children's Hospital on Thursday and died on Oct 31, 2020.
"This is just something that no parent should ever have to do, and I don't even know how to take a breath, let alone get through the next days and weeks and months and years without him," she said.∼Peyton Christopher Baumgarth, born on March 31, 2007 passed away on October 31, 2020 at the young age of 13 at Cardinal Glennon Children’s Hospital.

Peyton attended Washington Middle School but had many childhood school friends, faculty, and staff from LaSalle Springs Middle School in Eureka Missouri as well as Uthoff Valley Elementary in Fenton Missouri where he previously attended that were touched by Peyton’s energy, spirit, and humor.
Peyton had a zest for life. He loved playing video games, making and watching YouTube videos and Tik Toks, and playing Pokémon Go. He had collected Pokémon cards and POP figures; he cherished his many unique and rare pieces. He loved the St. Louis Cardinals and Blues and collected many memorabilia of his favorite players Yadier Molina and Vladimir Tarasenko. He loved his puppies Yadi and Louie who will be lost without their buddy. He loved the holidays, shopping, food, watching Netflix, playing flag football, and spending time at the lake. He loved listening to music and singing in the school choir. He remembered every word to many songs and was always singing.
Above all, Peyton loved spending time with his family and friends. He was always smiling, laughing, and making everyone around him laugh with his humor and jokes. This sudden, devastating loss has left a tremendous hole in the hearts of every person that knew Peyton.
