Richard Lennox, a noted Indiana architect, died May 6, 2014, two days before his 78th birthday.

He designed many buildings in the Indianapolis, Chicago, and Cincinnati areas. These include the Indianapolis Power & Light Building on the Circle, the State Life Building, and the One North Capitol Building, as well as public school buildings. One of his favorite buildings is the Perry Worth Elementary School (near Lebanon, Ind.), which three of his granddaughters attended.

Lennox also designed buildings for Duke Realty Group in Indianapolis and Hillenbrand Industries in Batesville. He was president of the LOM Corp. until he retired in 1991.

Lennox is survived by his wife, Joan; two children; and six granddaughters.

Graduate memorials are prepared by the APGA.
