Gov. Kelly Armstrong has ordered that all U.S. and North Dakota flags be flown at half-staff on Thursday, May 29. This gesture is to honor the memory of state Rep. Cynthia "Cindy" Schreiber-Beck of Wahpeton, who will be laid to rest on that day. Armstrong encourages residents of North Dakota to do the same at their homes and businesses.
Schreiber-Beck passed away on May 18 at the age of 70. She had been a member of the state House of Representatives since 2015. In addition, she served as executive director of the North Dakota Agricultural Aviation Association for nearly forty years and was a commissioner on the North Dakota Aeronautics Commission from 1997 to 2022.
The directive for flags to be flown at half-staff coincides with Schreiber-Beck's burial, which will occur during a private ceremony in Wahpeton. Funeral services are scheduled for Wednesday at 4 p.m. at the Fargo Air Museum, located at 1609 19th Ave. N., with visitation beginning at 2 p.m.
