Born on May 19, 2010, Kristopher was a beloved son, brother, uncle, grandson, cousin, nephew, and friend. A lifelong resident of Austin, Texas, he attended Austin High School, where he was growing, learning, and making memories that will forever remain in the hearts of those who knew him.
Kristopher was a young soul who brought happiness, laughter, and joy wherever he went. He was known for his funny, silly personality, his big heart, and his willingness to help anyone in need. He had a special way of making people smile and was always there for his friends. His loving nature and kind heart made him someone truly special.
Family meant everything to Kristopher. He shared a beautiful bond with his siblings and loved spending time with his cousins and extended family. Whether sharing laughs, enjoying good food, or simply being together, those moments meant so much to him and will forever be treasured.
Kristopher had a love for football and proudly supported his favorite team, the Philadelphia Eagles. He also took pride in his appearance and especially loved his hair, something that was uniquely him and always brought a smile to our faces.
His faith was an important part of his life. Kristopher loved attending church, had received all his sacraments, and held a special belief in God and St. Jude. His faith was a meaningful part of who he was and the person he was becoming.
He was also beginning to learn the value of hard work alongside his father, helping with tree jobs and learning about the pipe industry. These experiences allowed him to build new skills, spend meaningful time with his dad, and create memories that will be held close forever.
Kristopher loved life, loved his family, loved his friends, and especially loved food! He was a loving, helpful, funny, and unforgettable young man whose time with us was far too short.
Those He Leaves Behind
Kristopher leaves behind his loving mother, Grace Moctezuma, and his father, Fernando Soto, who will forever carry his memory in their hearts.
He also leaves behind his beloved siblings, Gabriella Soto, Mariah Soto, Izabella Moctezuma, and Silas Moctezuma, along with his precious niece, Leianna Soto, who will forever hold a special place in their hearts.
He leaves behind his loving grandmother, Sandra Soto, his grandfather, Omar Rodriguez Sr., and his grandmother, Mary Acosta.
Kristopher is preceded in death by his beloved grandfather, Felix Soto, whom we find comfort in knowing he is reunited with in heaven.
He will also be deeply missed by his numerous cousins, aunts, uncles, extended family members, and countless friends whose lives he touched.
Although our hearts are broken, we find comfort in the countless memories he left behind. We will continue to share his stories, laugh at the funny things he did, remember his silly ways, and hold close every moment we were blessed to spend with him.
Kristopher, you will forever be 16 in our hearts. Your smile, laughter, beautiful spirit, and loving heart will never be forgotten. You may be gone from our sight, but you will never be gone from our hearts.
Until we meet again, may God hold you close.
Forever loved. Forever missed. Forever our Kristopher.
