As my first year as Editor-in-Chief of the Journal of Hospice and Palliative Nursing draws to a close, I want to take a minute to publicly acknowledge and thank those who have served as manuscript reviewers. The process of peer review is crucial for JHPN. The following people have willingly shared their time and expertise to read, critique, and offer suggestions to authors and me. Without their knowledge and experience to guide me, I would not be able to fulfill my responsibilities as Editor.
