Little orders flags to fly at half-staff to honor Pope Francis

Gov. Brad Little, in conjunction with a directive from President Donald Trump, has ordered that all U.S. and State of Idaho flags be flown at half-staff in honor of His Holiness Pope Francis.

Flags are to fly at half-staff immediately until sunset on the day of the Pope's interment.

"Thousands of Idaho Catholics and people of all faiths are mourning the passing of Pope Francis, a true servant of God. Teresa and I join many, many others in honoring his life and legacy of service to Christ and others," Little said.
