Indy Says Goodbye To Amos Brown



On Saturday, November 14th, Indy said goodbye to our dear Amos Brown - The longtime Indianapolis journalist, known for his popular radio show "Afternoons with Amos" on Radio One-Owned WTLC-AM (1310). A beautiful tribute was published in the Indy Star with a photo gallery.

Additionally, Indiana Governor Mike Pence awarded Amos the State’s single highest honor posthumously, the Sachem Award. The Sachem, whose name comes from the Algonquin, is given to leaders who exhibit wisdom, judgment and grace and whose character underscores the importance of moral example. Indeed this is who we knew Amos to be.

As a result of this award, Governor Pence also requested that state facilities lower flags to half-mast in his honor. Amos’ name will be enshrined in the rotunda of the Indiana Statehouse. The above graphic is an outdoor billboard erected in his honor as well.


Amos Brown – rest in peace our dear brother.
