(MSC News)--Flags will fly at half-staff across Kansas, Friday, as the state remembers the life of a fallen firefighter.

The release, announcing the flag directive given by Governor Laura Kelly, says Wichita Firefighter Ty Voth died in the line of duty on August 1.

According to Kelly, flags will fly half-staff from sunup to sundown Friday in honor of Voth, who Kelly, in the release, commends for "his dedication and selflessness," while sending condolences to his family, colleagues, and others affected by his loss.

KAKE reports that Voth, a five-year Wichita Fire Department employee, died battling a Haysville house fire.
