James C. Marcuccilli, president and chief executive officer of STAR Financial Bank, Fort Wayne, and chairman of the board of the Indiana Bankers Association (IBA), has been named a Sagamore of the Wabash by Gov. Mike Pence. The award, the highest honor bestowed by the governor of Indiana, recognizes Hoosiers who complete distinguished statewide service. Marcuccilli was presented the award at the IBA Annual Convention on Sept. 24 by David H. Mills, director of the Indiana Department of Financial Institutions.

“I am deeply honored to receive this award,” said Marcuccilli, “particularly in the company of my fellow bankers. I am proud to come from a banking family, and grateful to carry on our family tradition of service to community.”
