Jennifer Kristen Soto, 38, of Colorado Springs passed away on September 4, 2016. She was born in Denver, Colorado and spent the first two years of her childhood living in Parker before her family moved to Colorado Springs where she lived until her death. Jennifer's greatest love, joy and achievements were her children. She spent all of her time with her beautiful babies. She loved the outdoors and had taught all three of her children how to swim from the time they were infants. She took them hiking in the mountains or liked hanging out at different parks around town. She loved taking them to the zoo and her absolute favorite was taking them to watch the hot air balloons every Labor Day weekend, something she had continued from when she was a child herself. You could almost always find her working on a cross-stitch or puzzle in her quiet times. Jennifer graduated from Doherty High School in 1998. She worked as a cashier most her adult life with Toy R' Us and later Albertson's. Jennifer is preceded in death by her father Ernest J. Soto Jr. and survived by her children Kristen Kaar, Brandon Kaar and Keira Soto, mother Linda Martinez, sister Valerie Lopez and brother Daniel Soto.
