Dreams Not Forgotten: Hope for a Better Tomorrow - Will Kalinke

"As an aggressive administrator of regional programs and services for youth with handicapping conditions due to disabilities, I could not resist assuming the challenge of Bill's multiple dilemmas as a neighbor to my planned retirement home," Kalinke says, recalling the man who inspired the author to create Dreams not Forgotten, a fictionalized account of their friendship.

Main Content

After meeting Bill and getting to know the severely handicapped man, Kalinke vowed to help Bill get proper medical care. The two men traveled from Wisconsin to Florida in search of solutions. When a team of neurologists told Bill he had six months to live, Bill didn't give up.

Will Kalinke spent most of his working life as a teacher or supervisor and administrator of educational programs.

After the death of his wife, he explored numerous challenges and roles, including becoming the owner of a hotel in Lakeland, Florida.

Kalinke now lives in Tomahawk, Wisconsin. He is also the author of Loved to Death, Victims and Vultures, Grandma Is a Saint and Memorabilia and Memories Shared.

Praise for Dreams not Forgotten

"Kalinke's storytelling has a magical way of tying everything together. While the intention for this novel is to help seniors share their own life stories with others, this is an inspirational read for adults of all ages." - U.S. Review of Books
