Maryland flags will fly at half-staff until further notice. Governor Larry Hogan issued the order to pay respect to the memory of Queen Elizabeth II who died on Thursday. Hogan said he’s heartbroken over the news of her passing. The Queen visited Maryland in 1957 and again in 2007. President Joe Biden also ordered the U.S. flag to be lowered. Both flags may return to full-staff at sunset on the day of interment.
