Mark R Jorgensen & Grandma Mariaelena resting spot

Donation protected


Mark Reid Jorgensen was born asleep in death on Jan 1st 2021 at 3:25am at Oregon Health and Science University to Kelsey &W.Scott Jorgensen. 

That week, his heart suddenly stopped beating. This was a huge shock to what had been a normal, healthy pregnancy. He was due June 3rd 2021. He was dearly wanted and will be sorely missed. 


I know that when thinking of Marks death
Ecclesiastes 12:7states: “The dust [of his body] returns to the earth, just as it was, and the spirit returns to the true God who gave it.” When the spirit, or life-force, leaves the body, the body dies and returns to where it came from​—the earth. Comparably, the life-force returns to where it came from​—God. (Job 34:14, 15; Psalm 36:9) This does not mean that the life-force actually travels to heaven. Rather, it means that for someone who dies, any hope of future life rests with Jehovah God. His life is in God’s hands, so to speak. Only by God’s power can the spirit, or life-force, be given back so that a person may live again.

How comforting it is to know that this is
exactly what God will do for all of those resting in “the memorial tombs”! (John 5:28, 29) At the time of the resurrection, Jehovah will form a new body for a person sleeping in death and bring it to life by putting spirit, or life-force, in it.

What a joyful day that will be!

We would like to have an actual spot place
our sons ashes with my husbands mothers
Creamains. 

his grandmother was Mariaelena still also
does not have a cremation plot and we would like to place them together we can have a place to go grieve so our sweet boy and my sweet mother in law who we both long for. 

Plots are far more than we had expected to be, also transportion costs where also pricey, his Ern also and any left over funds will go towards medical bills from the the delivery and follow up care. As well as finding the 
cause of death of our son for his autopsy. 

After delivery, Kelsey (me) lost half her blood and had complications from anesthesia
which is called a post darrell headache which forced William (Scott) to take time off to care for their older daughter.  Kelsey (me) is takingtime to heal as she was just going to start up her education again for a new career. 


Mark’s cremation was given to us for
free by Virgil T Golden funeral home, they do not charge for any stillborns cremation. 

Thank you for your support and love in this
 difficult time in our family. We also
appreciate this knowing these are difficult
times on us all so your generous gift for our son is appreciated 

* the cost of a plot for cremation in our area
Portland metropolitan area ranges from 
$2,000 to $5,000 for private cemeteries.
because of security concerns we prefer a
private own cemetery that will be well kept
and safe for other loved ones to come and
morn.
