1. A walker tray for use with a walker apparatus having opposable upper handle portions each of which are supported by at least a forward leg and a rearward leg, the forward and rearward legs of each upper handle portion being obliquely angled relative to one another, the walker tray comprising:
a forward edge, a rearward edge, laterally opposed edges, and a tray support portion extending intermediate said forward, rearward, and laterally opposed edges, the tray support portion comprising an upper tray surface and a lower tray surface;
a pair of laterally opposed handle-receiving apertures extending through the upper tray surface and the lower tray surface of the tray support portion inwardly adjacent the laterally opposed edges each of which extend along an aperture plane intersecting the forward and rearward edges orthogonally relative to the upper tray surface and the lower tray surface, the aperture planes being obliquely angled relative to a forward direction and the laterally opposed edges;
each of the handle-receiving apertures having an aperture length extending along the aperture planes and an aperture width extending orthogonally relative to the aperture planes, the aperture lengths and aperture widths being configured to receive the opposable handle portions of either (a) a parallel upright leg arrangement or (b) an obliquely angled upright leg arrangement;
each of the handle-receiving apertures defined inwardly by an inner leg-engaging edge configured to engage at least a forward leg portion and a rearward leg portion, said forward and rearward leg portions and said inner leg-engaging edge for wedge-supporting the walker tray upon the walker apparatus such that:
outer upper portions of the forward legs engage outer portions of the handle-receiving apertures at forward ends along the inner leg-engaging edge and inner upper portions of the rearward legs engage inner portions of the handle-receiving apertures at rearward ends along the inner leg-engaging edge of the parallel upright leg arrangement; and
forward upper portions of the forward legs engage forward portions of the handle-receiving apertures at forward ends thereof along the inner leg-engaging edge and rearward upper portions of the rearward legs engage rearward portions of the handle-receiving apertures at rearward ends thereof along the inner leg-engaging edge of the obliquely angled upright leg arrangement.
