Donate Life Rose Parade float features Claremont family

Ernest Goh's family will decorate the Donate Life Rose Parade float Sunday Dec. 7.

When Claremont resident Goh, 61, died in 2005 he was an organ and eye donor.

His family said his donation has saved five lives, per a Donate Life California Organ news release.  

Donate Life America member OneLegacy coordinates the Donate Life Rose Parade float which has 60 official partners including tissue banks, transplant centers and more supporting it.

There are more than 28,000 lives saved each year in the U.S. through organ donation, Donate Life officials said.
