Here Lies Buried
An important woman
An endearing spirit and good-hearted
Mrs. Rivkah the daughter of
R” Hayiim Yehudah, may his memory be for blessing
Feigenbaum from Tarnow
The Maidens saw her and they rejoiced
Shining as the sun and beautiful as the moon
Her children rise up and sing her praises
The Light: You excel over all
