Spokane Mayor Lisa Brown has ordered flags at all City facilities to be lowered to half-staff in remembrance of Congressman George Nethercutt.

“Congressman Nethercutt grew up in Spokane and went on to proudly serve the people of the Washington 5th congressional district for 10 years,” Mayor Brown said. “I encourage anyone with a flag outside of their home or business to join us in this recognition to honor his memory.”

A memorial service will take place on Tuesday, July 23, at 1 p.m. at Gonzaga University’s Hemmingson Center. Flags will remain at half-staff until close of business on Tuesday, July 23.
