איש תם וישר

נפ׳ כ״ז אדר תרפ״ו
ת׳ נ׳ צ׳ ב׳ ה׳

Translation:


Here lies (Abbreviation: Po Nitman)
An innocent/wholesome, and upright man,
Who walked in the ways of his ancestors,
And supported his household with the toil of his hands.

May his soul be bound up in the bond of eternal life. (Abbreviation: T.N.Cz. B.H.)
