An acrostic poem spelling the name of the deceased Riva
Here lies
Ms. Riva Leah daughter of Dov Tzvi [,Zwi,Cwi]
of blessed memory died 16 Heshvan 5663 [16 November 1902]
See passers by! Shout Woe for the crisis, God fearing and modest
found a grave here, was upright and honest…..
[the remainder is obstructed by vegetation]
