The value of education was instilled in General Patricia “Patty” Dallas Horoho, BSN ’82, from a young age by her beloved grandfather and mother. Her grandfather, Eddie Tarone — who emigrated from Italy to the United States when he was 13 years old — emphasized that education is something that can never be taken away. That commitment to education inspired Horoho to establish the Josephine “Jo” Dallas Nursing Scholarship Fund at Carolina Nursing, in memory of her late mother.
