Can I use more than one semi-colon in a sentence?

semi colons are generally used to connect two sentences that would basically be a run on. For instance: I have lived a life full of experiences that I will never forget; most people would look at these experiences as negatives. No semi-colon is necessary in your paragraph. The way I might write this paragraph, is this: His memory lives on within his parents (Kris and Catherine Corton), his two sisters and brother (Angela, Annie, and David), and his loving girlfriend.
