ABSTRACT:
This viewing pouch is a box made of flexible material having a part of the top panel of flexible transparent material and is suitable for containing a body from pickup at hospital, through funeral service and viewing and on to crematory for cremation. While the unit is of flexible material and may be folded into a compact bundle when empty and later conforms to the dead body in bag-like fashion, elongated elements are adapted to be inserted in loops of fabric on the top panel to stiffen and support the top panel of the pouch to give it a dressy and formal appearance when it is installed in a casket during viewing. The pouch is particularly suited to contain the body of a person dead from a communicable disease, because from hospital through viewing to crematory, the body need not be removed from the pouch. This avoids risks of communicating the disease to others.
