Pennsbury Wall Of Honor Ceremony Remembers Fallen Heroes

FAIRLESS HILLS, PA —Pennsbury High School will host the 22nd annual Wall of Honor ceremony Friday to honor fallen heroes with ties to the district.

The ceremony takes place at 7:30 a.m. in Keller Hall on the campus of Pennsbury High School West. The ceremony is traditionally held the Friday before the Memorial Day weekend.

The Pennsbury Wall of Honor displays the names of 200 fallen soldiers who either graduated
from Pennsbury High School or are connected to someone who works or worked for the district.

There are plans to make enhancements and expand the Wall of Honor next year, school officials said.

The ceremony will feature cadets with PHS’s AFJROTC program, who will offer personal
reflections on what the Wall of Honor and military service mean to them.

“Hard work and patriotism run deep in the Pennsbury community, and the Wall of Honor
ceremony is a direct reflection of that,” said Aly McBryar, Pennsbury’s Wall of Honor Faculty
Advisor.

McBryar works with the Pennsbury Wall of Honor Foundation, a non-profit organization to maintain the wall and foster an appreciation and respect for our nation’s military.

McBryar has been in charge of the Wall of Honor ceremony for the past nine years.

"This ceremony and tradition heading into Memorial Day weekend are so important,” McBryar said. “Our students walk by the Wall of Honor every day and see the faces and names of
Pennsbury graduates and those within the Pennsbury community who gave the ultimate sacrifice to our great nation. It is an honor and privilege to work with the veterans of the Pennsbury Wall of Honor Foundation and run this ceremony each year.”

Veterans and Gold Star families are invited to attend the ceremony, along with Pennsbury School
Board members and school district administration.
