Indiana EMS Memorial

Black ribbon

Gone But Not Forgotten text

As first responders, we understand the risks we take every day we report to duty. This memorial page honors all Indiana EMS personnel who have made the ultimate sacrifice while in the line of duty, receiving the EMS Star of Life designation. Each has left his or her own mark on Indiana emergency medical services, and they will be missed.
