………Ms. Yota Riwka [Rivka] daughter of the late our teacher and rabbi
Rabbi Yakovka Katz May the memory of the righteous be of a blessing
May her soul be bound in the bond of everlasting life,
Witness is this mound and witness is this stone, a righteous
woman was buried here to our sorrow, it is true that she died but those
who knew her…..[the remainder is illegible]
