MONTGOMERY, Ala. – Gov. Kay Ivey has declared that all flags throughout the state will be flown at half-staff starting Monday morning until Wednesday evening in honor of Marc Gann and Adam Russell who lost their lives tragically after their Lifesaver 4 helicopter crashed Sunday afternoon, April 2.

Orders from Gov. Ivey state that flags will fly at half-staff from sunrise on Monday, April 10 until sunset on Wednesday, April 12.
