A tribute was recently given in Orlando, Fla., in remembrance of Dr. Michael Kale.

A plaque was presented to his wife, Charlotte Kale-Hamrick, for his contribution and dedication to the advancement of Upper Cervical Specific Chiropractic and carrying on a tradition of excellence as passed down by Dr. B.J. Palmer.

Dr. Kale was the world’s leading authority on Dr. B.J. Palmer’s upper cervical procedure practicing this procedure longer than any other doctor. He was also an author, inventor, lecturer and the pioneer of taking groups of doctors to foreign countries. He saw more than half a million patients on those trips and saw over two million patients in his lifetime of practice.

Dr. Kale and Charlotte traveled and spoke extensively around the United States and world and were invited by ministers of health to Israel, Egypt, British West Indies, Argentina, Russia, Germany, Moldova, Romania and more to educate and render chiropractic care.

Dr. Kale died in July 2001 of complications from an automobile wreck. The Kale Global Network is now outside of Landrum, S.C. All of Dr. Kale’s children and grandchildren attended the tribute.
