We are saddened to inform people that Darrell Robes Kipp, Apiniokio Peta (Morning Eagle), the founder and executive director of Piegan Institute on the Blackfeet reservation is currently in hospice.

We know that he has both encouraged and inspired many community people in their efforts to sustain their indigenous languages. And many people have contacted the Institute with their thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for your continued prayers,
