How much residue will Jackie leave in the ash box? Cremains typically weigh between 3 and 9 pounds (1.4 - 4.1 Kg). A person's height is the best predictor of the weight of their cremains. Jackie is about average female height when standing in stocking feet - so she'll probably leave behind the average amount of "ash" for a woman - 5.8 pounds (2.6 Kg).
The final volume of Jackie's residue depends on how finely it is ground down and how tightly it is packed in its container. A very small portion of Jackie's residue will be irritrievably lost during the pulverization process - a pity since there will be so little of her left.
