[An acrostic poem spelling the name of the deceased Moshe Eliezer]
Our loss is a big as the ocean by the abbreviated era. Here lies. The very stones will cry out in a broken voice, a beauty was lowered to the earth, look and see who will rest underneath it, a great scholar, a beloved righteous, a member of a noble family,  a glorious offspring, piety and the knowledge merged in him, each eye will shed tears for his death, his wife is shouting and his sons’ hearts are breaking, many will tell of his value, he will receive the payment for his deeds in the heavens   He is the great rabbi, righteous and honest, an offspring of a distinguished ancestry, R’ Moshe Eliezer son of HaRav R’ Eliyahu Lewkowitz… Lewkowicz
