Condolences to the family. Compressed air can be a dangerous explosive. I was lucky to escape with minor injuries while mounting a passenger car tire over 40 years ago. Dustbowl's advice about a remote air chuck is a good idea. I also have found that a bar of soap kept in a coffee can with water makes an excellent tire lube. Most importantly, if the tire doesn't seat with 20 lbs or less of air, pull the valve stem, break the bead, lube again, and then retry.
