Spokane Mayor Lisa Brown has ordered flags at all City facilities be lowered to half-staff to coincide with Governor Jay Inslee’s directive that state and U.S. flags at all state agency facilities be lowered on Friday, March 1, in remembrance of United States Marine Corps Lance Corporal Donovan Davis.
“Spokane sends its deepest sympathies and condolences to Lance Cpl. Davis’ family, friends, and colleagues,” Brown said. “I encourage anyone with a flag outside of their home or business to join us in this recognition to honor his memory.”
Lance Cpl. Davis died as the result of an aviation mishap on Wednesday, Feb. 7. A memorial service will take place on Friday, March 1, at the Naval Air Station Whidbey Island Chapel.
