Funerary display arrangement with removable cloth assembly
A cloth assembly for a casket includes a first fabric segment, a second fabric segment, and a substrate. The first fabric segment has a first length and a first width, and the second fabric segment having a second length and a second width. The substrate has a third length and a third width. The first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment is secured to the substrate along the third length of the substrate, such that the second lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment can be disposed beyond at least one lengthwise edge of the substrate. The first lengthwise edge of the second fabric segment is secured to the substrate along the third length of the substrate, such that the second lengthwise edge of the second fabric segment can be disposed beyond the at least one lengthwise edge of the substrate.

3. The cloth assembly of claim 2 , further comprising a second substrate having a first portion lengthwise folded over a second portion, and wherein a second part of the first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment is disposed between the first portion of the second substrate and the second portion of the second substrate.
4. The cloth assembly of claim 3 , wherein the substrate is sized and configured to fit adjacent to inside surface of a casket container, the casket container sized and configured to fit a deceased adult human body in the supine position.
5. The cloth assembly of claim 4 , wherein the first width is sufficient to drape the first fabric segment over a top edge of the casket container and at least partially down an exterior surface of the casket container when the substrate is coupled adjacent to an inside surface of the casket container.
6. The cloth assembly of claim 5 , wherein the second width exceeds the first width.
7. The cloth assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a second substrate, wherein:
at least a second part of the first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment is secured to the second substrate along a length of the second substrate;
at least a second part of the first lengthwise edge of the second fabric segment is secured to the second substrate along the length of the second substrate.
8. The cloth assembly of claim 1 , further comprising a plurality of fasteners, each of the plurality of fasteners extending through the first portion of the substrate, the part of the first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment, the part of the first lengthwise edge of the second fabric segment, and the second portion of the substrate.
9. The cloth assembly of claim 8 , wherein each of the plurality of fasteners is a staple.
10. The cloth assembly of claim 1 , wherein the substrate comprises an elongate chipboard plank, and wherein at least the part of the first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment and at least the part of the first lengthwise edge of the second fabric segment are secured to a first side of the elongate chipboard blank.
11. The cloth assembly of claim 1 , wherein the first fabric segment includes a crepe layer, a padding layer, and fabric layer.
12. The cloth assembly of claim 11 , wherein the second fabric segment includes one or two layers of flexible sheet.
13. The cloth assembly of claim 1 , wherein the part of a first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment engages the substrate along the third length of the substrate, and engages the second fabric segment.
14. The cloth assembly of claim 1 , wherein the substrate is more rigid than the first fabric segment and the second fabric segment.
15. The cloth assembly of claim 14 , wherein the substrate is foldable.
16. The cloth assembly of claim 1 , wherein the part of a first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment is fastened to the substrate along the third length of the substrate.
17. A cloth assembly for a casket, comprising:
a first fabric segment having a first length and a first width;
a second fabric segment having a second length and a second width;
a substrate having a third length and a third width;
wherein:
at least a part of a first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment is secured against the substrate along the third length of the substrate, such that a second lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment is disposed beyond at least one lengthwise edge of the substrate;
at least a part of first lengthwise edge of the second fabric segment is secured against the substrate along the third length of the substrate and adjacent to the first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment, such that a second lengthwise edge of the second fabric segment disposed beyond the at least one lengthwise edge of the substrate.
18. The cloth assembly of claim 17 , wherein the substrate comprises a lengthwise folded cardboard substrate having a first portion folded over a second portion, and wherein at least a first part of the first lengthwise edge of the first fabric segment and at least a first part of the first lengthwise edge of the second fabric segment are disposed between the first portion and the second portion of the substrate.
