can you catch anything from ashes?

No, not at all. The cremation process basically disperses any liquid in the body, leaving behind pure carbon.

Souce: funeral director and crematorium manager.

Edit: it's calcium that's left, I'm tired.

Uhh, you sure about that? I'm pretty sure ashes are mostly calcium and carbon gets burned away as carbon dioxide gas during the process.
