May 8, 2026
Governor Gretchen Whitmer ordered U.S. and Michigan flags at the State Capitol Complex lowered to half-staff on May 8 to honor former state Representative Steve Adamini, who died on April 29, 2026, at age 81. Adamini served in the Michigan House of Representatives and held numerous leadership roles in Marquette County and across Michigan. He dedicated much of his life to public service, supporting veterans and underrepresented individuals through his legal work and civic involvement.
Flag protocol
Flags should be hoisted briskly to the peak and then lowered to half-staff position until sunset on May 8, then returned to full staff on Saturday, May 9.
