Carley Allison was an exceptionally talented and dedicated young lady that bravely fought an extremely rare clear-cell sarcoma. Carley passed away March 31, 2015 leaving a legacy of inspiration. Even more than a fighter, Carley was an inspiration. She captured the hearts of thousands of viewers with a YouTube video she posted of herself singing a rendition of One Direction's "More Than This," while breathing through a breathing tube inserted in her throat during an emergency tracheotomy.- Daniel Rundström was a pilot, globetrotter and technician.
Rundström was born July 1, 1925 in Stockholm, Sweden.
He served as an airplane mechanic in the Swedish Air Force during WWII and afterward accompanied aviator Carl Gustaf von Rosen to Africa to work in the Ethiopian Air Force during the reign of Haile Selassie.
Being determined, he first bought an airplane then learned how to fly. He came to the attention of the King of Yemen when delivering a gift of lions from Haile Selassie to the King of Yemen.
Before going to work as the chief pilot for the King of Yemen, Daniel and a friend rode motorcycles from Ethiopia across the desert and all the way to Sweden. He also worked some years later as a pilot in Germany.
Rundström retired to Dominica in 1990, built a house in Cochrane and proceeded to build a small garage where he constructed the first airplane ever built in Dominica.
This story is told in the film,"A Celebration of Flight".
Rundström first lived in Cochrane and eventually moved to Mero. He has many friends in both communities.
