ELIZABETH FLORES � eflores@startribune.com February 28, 2008 - Minneapolis, MN - Claudia Windal is an ordained Episcopal priest who discovered as an adult that she has Lakota blood. A year ago she opened the only Native American funeral home in the city. Windal feels that everyone, no matter how poor, deserves a respectful burial. As a result, she's spends much of her time looking for donations of everything from money to gravesites. Even with the donations, she figures, she loses money on every funeral.
