At top: here lies (abbr.)

First line: Husband and our dear father

Second line: Zalman Dovid the son of Issachar Dov

Third line: Milar (Miller)

Fourth line: who died on 30 Shevat 5697

Fifth line: may his soul be bound up in the bond of eternal life (abbr.)

Note: 30 Shevat 5697 corresponds to 11 Feb. 1937

Second line: Mrs. Mintsie the daughter of Aharon of blessed memory (abbr.)
