(Indianapolis, IN) - Flags across the Hoosier state are flying at half-staff in honor of Indiana's former First Lady. 

Governor Eric Holcomb directed the action following the death of Susan Bayh, who died last week at 61 years of age.  She was the wife of Evan Bayh, Governor of Indiana from 1989 to 1997.

Holcomb issued the order to lower flags yesterday to be in effect until sunset next Thursday.
