An inexpensive, light weight body support adapted for use in a casket to support a corpse. The body support consists of a pair of bed sections which are formed from blanks of sheet material such as paper board and which are positioned end-to-end in the casket. When set up, each bed section has a generally flat top panel and depending upright side panels having vertical dimensions that decrease progessively from the head portion to the foot portion to support the corpse in an inclined position. The top panel is scored longitudinally enabling it to sag under the weight of the corpse to restrain its sideways movement in the casket. Triangularly shaped base members are disposed transversely of the bed sections in the casket to support the bed sections by engaging their side panels. A corpse whose weight exceeds a predetermined magnitude will cause the side panels to collapse around the base members lowering the corpse in the casket.
