Each rod has a pair of vertical and horizontal leg portions, the vertical leg portions for resting against the front torso area of a wearer, the horizontal leg portions projecting outwardly from the vertical leg portions and supporting the tray in a substantially horizontal plane and forwardly of a front side of the wearer's torso. The holder tray assembly also has a transverse support member extending between and attached to the vertical leg portions of the rods and a flexible member for encircling a back side of the wearer's torso and being attached at one end to the transverse support member. The support member and flexible member also includes strips of complementary hook and loop materials for detachably attaching the flexible member at an opposite end portion thereof to the support member for securing the holder tray assembly to the front area of the user's torso.
