We are deeply saddened to hear of the passing of Jim Morris. A civic leader, global ambassador and tireless advocate for Indiana, Jim leaves an enduring legacy through his tremendous impact on our community. He played a pivotal role in establishing White River State Park as a cultural corridor for our city, and his vision helped transform the profile of Indianapolis. A dedicated public servant, Jim received the 2021 Sachem Award in recognition of his countless accomplishments and contributions. Our thoughts are with the family Jim leaves behind. He will be greatly missed.
