(MSC News)--Flags will fly at half-staff across Kansas Wednesday, in honor of a late Kansas firefighter.
Governor Laura Kelly, on Tuesday, issued an executive order to fly all flags throughout the state at half-staff to remember Arkansas City Firefighter Trevor Rusk. Rusk died August 24 while off duty. He was 36-years-old.
Kelly, in the release, says Rusk's "selflessness and courage will be remembered by his colleagues, friends, and family,” adding that “Kansas owes him a debt of gratitude for his service and sacrifice."
Wednesday is the day of Rusk's funeral, with the flags to be flown at half-staff from sunup to sundown.
