Lethbridge Donor Family Invited to Rose Parade

94.1 Classic Hits

January's Rose Parade in Pasadena, California will feature a southern Alberta organ donor family.

A Lethbridge organ donor family will take part in the Rose Parade January 2nd, 2012 in Pasadena, California. Jared Heidinger made a floragraph of his wife Krista, who became an organ and tissue donor when she died two years ago. He says the image is organic and made completely of flowers. Krista's floragraph will be one of 72 floral images displayed on a float by Donate Life America and is the only Canadian image on the float. Heidinger says it was a special, but emotional time for him and his kids to re-create Krista's image, but it's something they'll have forever.
