Symbol: hand to cup signifies deceased from the Levites. "Here lies the young precious man, a pleasant disciple and good-hearted. Here is the late Ya'aqov Leib of blessed memory, son of Reb Hayil HaLevi may his light shine. Died 1 Adar, year 5662. May his soul be bound in the bond of everlasting life." Translated by Heidi M.
