I, J. Kevin Stitt, Governor of the State of Oklahoma, hereby direct the appropriate steps be taken to fly all American and Oklahoma flags on State property at half-staff from 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. on Tuesday, September 3, 2019, to honor former state lawmaker Gilmer N. Capps, who died Tuesday, August 27, 2019. Former Senator Capps represented Oklahoma State Senate District 26. He was a concerned and diligent legislator who worked tirelessly on issues related to agriculture and the aerospace and technology sector. Former Senator Capps attended Oklahoma State University and Cameron State University. In addition to public service, former Senator Capps took pride in his faith, his family, and running his farming and ranching business. Oklahoma farmers and ranchers are the heart and soul of America and people like former Senator Capps represent the strongminded, self-reliant character of our state. This executive order shall be forwarded to the Division of Capital Assets Management, who shall cause the provisions of this order to be implemented by all appropriate agencies of state government. IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and caused the Great Seal of the State of Oklahoma to be affixed at Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, on this 29th day of August, 2019. BY THE GOVERNOR OF THE STATE OF OKLAHOMA J. Kevin Stitt Michael Rogers Secretary of State
