Kansas Governor Jeff Colyer ordered flags to be flown at half-staff until sun-down Friday, March 30, 2018 to honor the life of civil rights icon, Linda Brown, who as a young girl was the center of the landmark case Brown v. Board of Education, in which the Supreme Court declared the segregationist doctrine of "separate but equal" to be unconstitutional. "Linda Brown's life reminds us that by standing up for our principles and serving our communities we can truly change the world. Linda's legacy is a crucial part of the American story and continues to inspire the millions who have realized the American dream because of her."
[*Note: ​In Missouri, all flags at all State and government offices will be flown at half-staff, in the County of St. Louis from sunrise on March 22 until sunset on March 30, 2018, to commemorate the life of Cloria Brown, a Missouri state legislature Representative, who died while in office.]​​​​
[**Note 2: Also, by order of the Missouri Governor, all flags at all State and government offices will be flown at half-staff, in the counties of Cass, Clay, Jackson, Platte, Audrain, Boone and Cole until sunset on March 30, 2018 to honor FBI Special Agent Melissa Morrow.]

​Thankfully, during this past week, there were no military service members killed while serving in the Global War on Terrorism combat zones of Iraq and Afghanistan.
Now, let's take this opportunity to acknowledge, remember, and thank all those service members who are deployed overseas.  
We appreciate them defending our freedoms and pray for their safe return home.
