Caleb's Mom had his two oldest siblings Brian was born 8-17-1987    Heather was born 6-10-1989  Mom was with Heather's Daddy right up untill just before she met Joel Caleb's Father. 

 
1990
Before Caleb was born Mom had his brother Brian and two sister Heather and Marie. In August of 1990 Mom was close to eight months pregnant with big sis, and I had made a big decision to move from where I was. One day while moving I met the man that would be Caleb's Father, Joel Jensen. Joel got us involved in the United Pentecostal Church. We started going there in August of 1990. Mom was actually pregnant with his big sister Marie. She was living close to down town. She moved to Midvale to be close to the church she started attending, Midvale UPC. Mom was baptized in the name of Jesus while very big and pregnant with big sis Marie. Mom had Marie 9-27-1990. Then December of 1990 Mom and Dad (Wayne Joel Jensen) married. By January Mom was pregnant with Caleb. .  
 
1991 -- 1994

Mom found out she was pregnant in January of 1991 in about March of 1991 Mom & Joel decided to make a move to Washington. Mom had lived there before, and amazingly enough Joel lived there before also. Both had lived in Vancouver and did not know each other at the time. So both moved to Utah from Vancouver now they would go back together. In Vancouver on September 11th 1991 little baby Caleb was born
He was 7lbs 1 1/2 oz and 20 inches long. What a cutie. His big brother and sisters were so happy to finally meet him.
Shortly after Caleb was born Joel had law problems and deciced to move to Arizona where he felt there would be more work. He had problems in WA and in Utah so he wanted to move on.

 

The Picture above was in a house That Mommy and her four children rented and lived in for almost a year all by their selves in Gilber AZ behind the Chuch. The Pastoe - Pastor Hampton rented it to Dawn. Went back to the small trailer for a short time.
By the time Caleb was three his Mom had  so many problems and had to seperate from Joel. After that because of the things Joel did he was never seen of or heard of again.

 
1994 -- 2004
In 1994 we where in Longview Washington. Mom took us all back to UPC church the Longview UPC. We rooted our selves there. Mom started to better our lives and give some stability. Mom stated babysitting for a man in our Church. His name was Charles Edward Boyd. He had at that time custody of Cari and soon after he got custody of Candice. He had a teenager Jason who took care of his self. Also a Son Chad who still lived with his Mom, Chuck's ex-wife Angela. Mom finalized her devoice 1996, after already beinseparated from Joel and not seeing him for a full two years. At that time Mom and Chuck started to date. Chuck was a great Dad and a great Man. SO July 12 1996 Mom and Chuck were married, and by December 1996 they bought their house where they lived untill 2004.   Now there was 8 children. There was Jason who was 15 Brian was 8 Chad was 7 Heather was six, Cari & Marie were 5 and little CAndice and Caleb were 4. Soon after we bought our house in Kelso. It had a huge yard and a small Mother in law house out back. We had lots of fun times there. We had apple trees pear trees grape vines goose berry bush. Oh my, fruit galore. Mom made all kinds of pies and preserves.

     IN 1998 Cari, Candice, & Chad's little brother was 18 months old his name was Kaden. He drowned by their Mothers house in a creeck. I just felt so horrible for her, I told her over and over I just don't know what to say to you. I am just so sorry for this loss. I thought to myself many times how would I of handled this. I think I would go crazy. It was so hard for every one. But Angela just had a hard time there for a while so we took custody of Chad. Jason was out on his own. At this time in life Brian's Dad started paying child support so Mom let him meet Brian and all the children got to know him.  By this time Chuck had backslid. As The kids became older the issues became harder and then in June 2004 to hard to bear any more. Mom had to do the unthinkable separate her children. One of the hardest things she ever did.

 
2004 -- 2007

First we moved to Idaho and tried to make a go of it there. That just wasn't going to cut it. So Mom moved back to Utah. There we hit some real hard times. We lost of vehicle we were homeless, and the children went wild. To go wild in down town salt lake was real scary for Mom. She tried in so many ways to get us back to the good children she knew we all could be. It just wasn't going her way. Mom had a moment in her life and she back slid. Mom met a Man named Eddie in 2004 and in 2005 they fell in love Caleb was in programs and we were doing what we could to keep a home for him to come back to. Things weren’t turning out the way Mom wanted. She was missing Caleb so bad. But now he was in a program and he was showing he was pulling it together. We were looking forward to him coming home. He was supposed to be back in salt lake and working towards coming home by May 28th.
Then May 2 2007 Mom is eating dinner. The phone rings Mom picks it up the man says this is Jim from AYA Caleb has been life flitted out of the program. Caleb is dead. OH MY GOD those where the worst words in the universe. My heart broke that moment. I didn’t find out until three days later that Caleb died from an untreated staff infection. That he was very sick and did not get help. Here are a few more sites about Caleb and the family.                                                                                                      http://caica.org/CALEB_JENSEN_DEATH_WILDERNESS_PROGRAM.htm http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=134588677
