About Us

Lindsey Horton was a registered nurse at Permian Regional Medical Center in Andrews, Texas. She worked in the Surgery Department and completed two cases the morning of August 10, 2020. She took a break and went to the bathroom. A while later her co-workers began looking for her. The bathroom was locked, and they could not get in. They called Maintenance to pull the core of the lock. When they opened the door, they found Lindsey’s lifeless body on the floor. The cause of death was determined to be “Sudden Cardiac Death due to Mitral Valve Prolapse”. She went into a fatal arrhythmia, probably ventricular fibrillation. The Lindsey Horton Memorial Scholarship Fund has been started in honor and memory of Lindsey and will provide scholarships to nursing students and other healthcare fields so that out of tragedy can come some good.
