Obituary for Jennifer Lisa Soto Jennifer Lisa (Kleist) Soto, 45, was born March 1, 1973 in Pryor, OK to Charles and Mary (Taylor) Kleist and passed away Monday, July 30, 2018 at her home in Fort Gibson. Jennifer attended school in Guthrie and graduated with the class of 1991. She furthered her education at Northeastern State University graduating in 1999 with a degree in Business Administration.
She immediately went to work for WW Hasting Hospital in the Finance Dept until 2009 when she accepted a position with the Veterans Affairs office as an Education Claims Examiner until her passing. Jennifer married her best friend and the love of her life Santos Soto Jr. on February 6, 2005 in Newton County, Arkansas. She was of the Baptist faith and loved spending time with her daughter, Sierra Lynn.
Jennifer enjoyed watching Sierra play softball from the age of four. A devout OU fan, she attended many football and softball games in Norman. She loved NASCAR, to cook, bake, spicy foods and cheese cake.
She drank unsweet tea with one pink package. Jennifer loved thrills, there wasn’t a roller coaster she wouldn’t ride. She was a very loving and giving person, who always put everyone else first.
She was a private person and not one to let people know of her illness. Her husband Santos and her daughter Sierra Lynn were her pride and joy and loved them unconditionally. Jennifer was preceded in death by her father, Charles Kleist.
