Over the Rainbow


The last wish of hospice patient Dorothy Ellis, 92, was to soar above the fields of her hometown in lola, Kansas, in a powered parachute  (That’s right. Whatever Lola wants!) Six weeks before her death, Ellis’s family hired a pilot to grant her wish. Here is  a video of Dorothy’s flight, which shows her laughing, clapping, and giving a “thumbs up”… all of it set to the song “ Somewhere Over the Rainbow.”
