Five individuals have been selected for the East Greenwich High School's Wall of Honor for 2020. They will be inducted in a ceremony next April in the East Greenwich High Auditorium. The induction will be held in January on a date to be announced.

Selected for the 2020 class are: children’s book author Susan Stevens Crummel of Fort Worth Texas; her sister, Janet Stevens, a book illustrator, from Boulder, Colorado; Dr. Francis Pescosolido, of Narragansett, a prominent Doctor of Psychiatry and Mental Health; Phil Garvey, a former East Greenwich athlete, then coach, and a major in the United States Marine

Corps; and Dennis Lynch of Narragansett, a former CEO of NYCE Payments and current Chairman of Cardtronics, a global leader in ATM services.

The ceremony lasts roughly an hour and a half and is followed by a libation in the school cafeteria. The event is free.

The East Greenwich High School Wall of Honor was started in 2008 and so far 68 people have been enshrined. Among those are a Governor, a First Lady, outstanding athletes, a NASA Director, outstanding coaches, TV personalities, a Navy Admiral, prominent people from the world of business, a 9-11 hero and many people who have contributed to the town, the state and the Nation. The Wall of Honor is not a Hall of Fame. People are chosen for the value of their achievements since leaving East Greenwich High School, and, who will serve as a model and inspiration to current students at EGHS.
