My story · Scotty Crandlemire

A personal farewell.
A new idea.

AngelAire grew out of Scotty’s difficult experience honoring a friend’s final wishes. Scattering by hand left ashes in clumps around his feet and in his shoes, rather than creating the farewell he had imagined.

A pilot, Scotty pursued a better solution: a fan-assisted urn that releases cremated remains in a controlled cloud. His goal was to give families a more dignified, peaceful moment together.

Today, he is offering a new owner the opportunity to carry that idea forward.

The invention

U.S. Patent
No. 7,624,485.

The patent describes a device using pressurized airflow, a hopper and a valve arrangement to disperse cremated remains. Its specification and claims are available for buyer review.

Review the patent record

IP review for a buyer

Patent ownership, maintenance, remaining term and assignment documentation should be verified through USPTO records before closing. Brand and trademark rights should also be reviewed as part of the transfer.

The patent number identifies the issued invention; it is not a representation of a verified current legal status. Registration and ownership records are available for due diligence.

Market context

Cremation is already
the majority choice.

Figures from the Cremation Association of North America (CANA), published with its 2026 statistics summary.

62.8%

U.S. cremation rate

CANA reports cremation accounted for 62.8% of U.S. deaths in 2025.

69.1%

Projected for 2030

CANA projects the U.S. cremation rate will reach 69.1% by 2030.

1.95M

U.S. cremations in 2025

CANA’s 2026 summary lists 1,950,592 U.S. cremations for 2025.

Source: CANA Industry Statistical Information and 2026 summary, reviewed October 5, 2026. These figures describe the wider cremation market; they do not measure demand for scattering urns or forecast AngelAire revenue.

The trend provides a setting for a buyer to explore funeral-home partnerships, product sales and rental programs. These are potential channels to assess, rather than existing contracted revenue.

A simple action.
A moment to remember.

Watch original AngelAire videos showing the release urn in ceremonies and comparing it with scattering by hand. Historical footage illustrates use; it does not replace operating instructions.
