I have no objection to agencies lowering the flags at the close of business on Friday, May 30, 2025. Flags should remain at half-staff until close of business or sunset on Sunday, June 1, 2025, or first thing Monday morning, June 2, 2025.
Other government entities, individuals, and businesses are encouraged to join this recognition.
A memorial service will take place on Sunday, June 1, 2025 at 2 pm at the Meydenbauer Center in Bellevue.
Please email FlagDirectives@gov.wa.gov if you have any questions about this flag directive.
