Abstract
An urn for storing the ashes of cremated remains of a person or a pet includes a housing in the shape of a protective angel on a support having an outwardly extending shelf adjacent the angel, and on which a representation of the person or pet may rest. An outwardly opening cavity in the housing receives the cremated remains, and a cover secured over the cavity confines the cremated remains within the housing. The arms and wings of the angel are disposed to symbolize loving concern for the deceased.
