Jennifer Dawn Kingman (April 28, 1978 - November 22, 2017) Our beloved Jennifer passed away suddenly on November 22, 2017, at the age of 39 at her home in Kuna. She was born April 28, 1978. She grew up in Meridian, going to Mary McPherson Grade School, Meridian Middle School, and Meridian High. She was a very athletic girl and excelled in softball and basketball. She married Brent Kingman in 1995 and they had two children, Emily and Dylan. Jennifer and Brent were soon divorced. Jennifer spent the next 18 years with her life partner, Tim Wetzstein, which produced one more child, Ashlee. Jennifer's life centered around raising her 3 children and helping Tim in his trucking business. She used to love watching Emily play soccer, Dylan wrestling or playing baseball and Ashlee in dance. She always tried hard to make sure everyone around her felt loved and happy, especially her family. "Aunt Jenny" absolutely adored all of her nieces and nephews, many of whom referred to her as their favorite aunt, and she had that ability to make each one feel like they were her favorite too. She was so thoughtful and caring to everyone she met and was generous almost to a fault. Jennifer had an angelic soul that exuded kindness and warmth and she greeted everyone with a beautiful smile, like a ray of sunshine. (Tim gave her the nickname "Sunshine" soon after they first met and many of Tim's friends only know her by that name.) She loved camping in the mountains with her kids and it was her wish to have her ashes "cast to the wind" in one of her favorite spots. Her family, friends and neighbors have been devastated at her early departure from this earthly world, but can take comfort knowing she is now relieved from all pain and struggles and is now in the arms of our Lord, and Heaven is certainly a little bit better place now. Jennifer is survived by her daughters Emily (Edi) Lara, Ashlee and her son Dylan and life partner Tim Wetzstein, her mother Sharon and step-father Webb Reines, father Mike Engle, her sister Michelle (Ryan) Rickerl, brothers Matt (Alyssa), Zach (Vanessa), and Jake (Morgan) Reines. She is also survived by sisters Sunny (James) Drennon, Rachel (Joe) Keenan, and brother Ben (Brittany) Engle, grandparents Robert and Claudina Engle and very special father-in-law Ron Wetzstein, and her numerous, adoring nieces, nephews, aunts, uncles, and extended families. She was preceded in death by Grandpa and Grandma Frisbie, Donna May Wetzstein (Tim's mom), Diane Wetzstein (Tim's step-mom), and Maggie Wefer (Tim's grandma) A Memorial Service will be held at 2 pm, on Friday, December 01, 2017, at the Zeyer Funeral Chapel, 83 North Midland Blvd., Nampa, ID, 83651. Oh Jenny, we love and miss you so............ A death is not the extinguishing of a light, but the putting out of the lamp because the dawn has come
