FLINT, Mich.—Flint Mayor Sheldon Neeley and James Avery, Chair of the Genesee County Board of Commissioners, have ordered the flags to be lowered to half-staff at Flint City Hall and Genesee County facilities in honor of former member of the Genesee County state delegation and current candidate for state representative Tim Sneller, who has passed away.
“Tim Sneller was a well-loved unifier who brought people together from all walks of life,” Mayor Neeley said. “He was a former schoolteacher, and he had a gift for teaching people through his governmental work as well. Tim was my close colleague in the state legislature, and I will miss both his friendship and advocacy for our community.”
“As we honor the life of Tim Sneller, we are reminded of his longstanding commitment to public service,” Commissioner Avery said. “Tim’s dedication to the residents of Genesee County was tireless, and his work made a profound difference in our community.”
The flags will remain at half-staff at the downtown Flint municipal buildings until next Tuesday, July 16.
