    “At a time when COVID-19 is spreading quickly in our community, we are once again reminded of its terrible toll,” Chairman Spoonhunter said. “We pray for the loved ones left behind and that our Creator watch over them. And we urge our fellow Arapaho people to be careful in protecting themselves and their families. This virus has taken too much from our Tribe already.”
