Daugaard Requests Flags at Half-Staff in Reagan’s Memory

PIERRE, S.D. (AP) — Gov. Dennis Daugaard is requesting that all flags in South Dakota be flown at half-staff to honor the life of former first lady Nancy Reagan.

Reagan died on Sunday of congestive heart failure at her home in Los Angeles. She was 94. She was the wife of President Ronald Reagan.

Daugaard's flag directive is in accordance with an order by President Barack Obama. It's in place until Reagan is laid to rest.
