CENTERVILLE, Ohio (WDTN) - A local couple donates their baby's organs and gets national recognition. When little Isaiah Jones got sick in his crib, his parents could not imagine his eventual death would create so many benefits.

Isaiah was six months old when he died and his parents' donation of his organs allowed two dying babies to live. Now, Isaiah's picture will adorn a float in the Rose Bowl Parade on New Year's Day. His parents, Tim and Leighann of Jones of Centerville, along with friends and family will create a floragraph of Baby Isaiah.

He was one of 76 people in the United States chosen to be depicted on the "Donate Life" float. The community is invited to help with the floragraph Friday, December 18th at 10 am. Parkview Church of the Nazarene, 4701 Far Hills, Kettering.
