![An older couple sit on the ground wearing robes that have white snowflake designs on dark backgrounds. More snowflakes are drawn on the background directly behind the figures. One knits and the other is holding a small object. At the left, in the background are multiple teepees around a fire. A dog looks with curiosity toward the couple. The drawing refers to the Native American philosophy of allowing older members of the tribe to go away from the community to die.](https://wam.org//wp-content/uploads/2020/12/2014.15.2-800x597.jpg)
