Greg Horak graduated from Anacortes High School in 1989 and passed away on July 24, 1994. Greg had a caring sensitivity and concern for others; he was independent, self-reliant and had a true love of life. He is most remembered for his desire to serve others. In his senior year at AHS, Greg operated Safe Rides--a program offering late night rides to anyone in need--from Dr. Anderson’s (AHS counselor) basement. After graduation, Greg’s desire to be of service and save lives led him to join the US Coast Guard. He proudly served as a Radioman and was stationed in Kodiak, Alaska, Tokyo, Japan, and on the Polar Star icebreaker out of Seattle. This scholarship is offered as a tribute to Greg and his memory.
