LINCOLN, NE – Governor Jim Pillen, in coordination with Mayor John Ewing of Omaha, has delegated the mayor the authority to order all U.S. and state flags at City of Omaha facilities to be flown at half-staff on Saturday to honor Mike Yanney. Yanney, who was born and raised in Kearney, died on February 14. He was 92.
