The stone fragment bottom right -
Here lies a woman young in days who was plucked short
of years, pleasant in her worthy deeds, the modest Ms.
Henya [Heni] Riva daughter of Reb Zev Nachum from Gorodets [Horodets in Yiddish] died…
The stone fragment on the left - A woman….modest beloved,
May she be blessed above women in the tent,
important in her deeds…. Haya [Chaya] Rachel [Ruchel]
daughter of Avraham [Abraham] ? died on the eve
of the holiday of Sukkot 5653?
by the abbreviated era
May her soul be bound in the bond of everlasting life
