Statement from County Executive Day on the passing of
Senator John McCain

"Senator John McCain was a man without equal and his legacy will never be forgotten. His heroism, honesty, independence and integrity were the cornerstones on which he built his lifetime of service to our country. He was tireless in that service, fighting for our best interests even when it wasn't popular because he knew what he was doing was right. Our nation has lost a great man, in honor of his memory I am ordering that all American flags on County property be flown at half-staff."
