A double stone. On the right side – A plant of delight…upright and honest, a praised
yeshiva student, all who knew him will carry in lamentation for him,
they will shout bitterly because he died in his youth,
was loyal and God-fearing, a friend to the pious, the
prominent yeshiva student ? ? Gershon son of Yosef
[Josef] May his light shine, died with a good reputation 4
Adar [the remainder is obstructed by a tree trunk].
On the left side - Here lies a man upright and honest,
followed the ? path all of his life and studied under the
righteous, supported the needy with kindness,
held the hands of those who studied the
Torah with all of his might and performed good deeds,
he is the pious scholar our teacher and rabbi Yakov
son of Reb Menachem… [the remainder is obstructed by
