Flags at Half-Staff for Dolly Parton
August 25, 2026 – September 1, 2026
Country music legend Dolly Parton passed away on August 25, 2026, at the age of 80, following a brief battle with cancer. Governor Ron DeSantis of Florida ordered the flags of the United States and State of Florida to be flown at half-staff at all state and local government buildings in honor of her extraordinary contributions to music, culture, and philanthropy. Parton's remarkable seven-decade career made her one of country music's most beloved ambassadors, and her generous humanitarian work touched countless lives worldwide.
