Local Flags to Be Lowered to Half Staff in Tribute to Kirk

On Friday, David Morgan, the Executive of Lawrence County, took a significant step by signing a proclamation that honors the life and contributions of Charlie Kirk, the founder of Turning Point USA. Kirk tragically lost his life on Wednesday during a speaking event at Utah Valley University, an incident that has been felt deeply across the nation. The proclamation emphasizes the impact of his passing, describing it as a substantial loss for all Americans.

In a gesture of respect and remembrance, the proclamation also directs that flags throughout Lawrence County will be flown at half-mast. This act serves as a tribute to Kirk’s legacy and the influence he had on many during his lifetime. The decision to lower the flags reflects the community’s collective mourning and recognition of the void left by his untimely death.
