State employee retired rather than lower flag to honor Helms.

I really respect that he stuck to his principles. I certainly wasn't happy about all the flags being at half-mast for ol' Jesse.

You're welcome! I didn't know if it would make news outside of the state, so I thought I would share.

I'm glad someone balked at honoring the old (hears mother say "if you can't say something nice" and stops typing).

It's been interested to see what sort of note different media outlets strike.

Yup.
