The tombstone for Rae Nudelman translates as follows:

"Here lies Rachel Bas/(daughter of) Reb Moshe HaLevi, who died on the 22nd day of the Hebrew month of Shvat. May her soul be bound up in the bonds of eternal life."

The word "Reb" in front of her father's name is an honorific title of respect, however, it does NOT imply rabbi....Jo

At the very top, near the Star of David/Magen David, the following is inscription is translated as follows: The dear woman (????), Mrs. Rachel Nudelman

Added this for your info....Jo
