Here lies
An acrostic poem spelling the name of the decease Yeshaya
Was friendly to people without fatigue and rest, guarded his religion
with all of his heart, helped and supported the poor and the needy, his
hands and his legs did not stop for them, was righteous upright and honest,
maintained a good name in his community….[the remainder is obstructed
by vegetation] Translated by Sara Mages (smages@comcast.net)
