Miscarriage & Stillbirth Memorial Service

Willamette Memorial Park Cemetery and Samaritan Albany General Hospital have partnered together for over 30 years to hold a memorial burial service for miscarried or stillborn babies.

The cemetery has set aside a circle of land for burial of babies who have died before birth, no matter how early in pregnancy. The park memorializes these babies with a year marker to identify the area where the ground was opened for burial of cremated remains and/or mementos. The baby’s name will be recorded in a memorial book that is kept at the park.

All families are welcome. This is not limited to Samaritan Health Services patients. If families would like to participate this year, email [email protected]. En español, [email protected].
