Kingsten Bitsoi

Kingsten Vallin Bitsoi was gently returned to his Heavenly Father at 1 month old while being cradled in his mother's arms at Primary Children's Hospital in Salt Lake City, Utah, on Aug. 19, 2016, after a sudden illness.

On July 18, 2016, Kingsten was born to Alexandra Rae Bitsoi and Heriberto Julio "Eddy" Dominguez. He was a fighter who cherished companionship and loved being held – especially while rocking in a chair. His older siblings were great little helpers, naturally caring and protective of their baby brother.

He is survived by his parents; his older brother and sister, Ryden and Nevaeh; grandparents, Val and Linda Bitsoi; grandparents, Gilbert and Alicia Dominguez; aunts and uncles, (Morgan) and Jeremy Carr, (Braxton) and Cortney Bitsoi, Brody Bitsoi, Bronson Bitsoi, (Crystal) and Ruben Galaviz, (Marisol) and Emanuel Vargas and Lorena Dominguez; and many cousins.

Although his visit here on the earth was short, he touched and blessed many lives as he embodied love and purity.

"In God I trust,

to the heavens I pray,

I know He hears me.

My guardian angel you are,

my King you will always be

and my son for eternity."

– by his mother, Alex

A private ceremony will be held to celebrate his life. Kingsten will be laid to rest at Shelton Cemetery in Ririe. Messages of sympathy and support for the family may be received at www.gofundme.com/FightForKingsten, proceeds of which will go toward a headstone for baby Kingsten.
