As a mark of respect for the late former state Rep. Diana “Mele” Carroll, Gov. David Ige has ordered that the flags of the United States and State of Hawaii shall be flown at half-staff at all state offices and agencies, as well as the Hawaii National Guard, from sunrise to sunset Friday to recognize services held on Oahu and Sunday, which is the day services will be held on Maui.
“A pillar in Maui County, Mele Carroll’s dedication to improving her community will be missed. She worked hard for her constituents and her passion was evident in her work,” said Ige. “We send our heartfelt condolences to the Carroll family and her many friends.”
Born on Oahu, Rep. Carroll, 50, served in the Hawaii State House of Representatives from 2005 to 2015. On Feb. 1, Carroll resigned from the Hawaii Legislature because of complications from cancer treatment. She died of cancer on Feb. 18.
