    PORTSMOUTH, Va. (WAVY) — Gov. Glenn Youngkin ordered the United States flag to be flown at half-staff Friday.

    The Commonwealth of Virginia was ordered for flags to be flown at half-staff on all state and local buildings and grounds in memory and respect of former Virginia Delegate Theodore “Ted” Virgil Morrison, Jr.

    According to an obituary for Morrison , he died on July 6, 2024 after representing Newport News in the General Assembly from 1968 to 1988. Starting in 1989, he was elected to be a member of the State Corporation Commission, where he served as its chairman on five separate occasions until his retirement in 2008.

    The order goes from sunrise to sunset.
