It is with deep respect and heartfelt gratitude that we honor the life and legacy of an extraordinary nursing leader, colleague, and friend, Gregory Horeni. His unwavering dedication to patient care, commitment to excellence, and genuine compassion left a lasting impact on everyone privileged to work alongside him.

Greg exemplified what it truly means to be a nurse, advocating tirelessly for patients, uplifting his colleagues, and leading with both humility and strength. His presence brought reassurance in moments of uncertainty and inspiration in times of growth. He was not only a skilled clinician but also a mentor, a guiding light, and a source of encouragement for so many within our nursing community.

Through his leadership, Greg cultivated a culture of professionalism, kindness, and accountability. His legacy is reflected in the countless lives he touched—patients who received exceptional care, colleagues who grew under his mentorship, and a team that felt his unwavering support.

Though Greg is no longer with us, his impact remains deeply woven into the fabric of our organization and lives. His contributions will continue to influence our practice, inspire our purpose, and remind us of the profound difference one dedicated nurse can make.

It is with profound honor that we recognize Greg with the DAISY Award for Extraordinary Nurses, presented to his family in acknowledgment of a life devoted to compassionate care, excellence, and service. His memory will forever remain a source of inspiration and pride.
