Hi Susan, The Hebrew name on the right side of the tombstone for Esther Pailet Burnstein is translated as Ester Bas/(daughter of) Nossen Shmuel. The closest English names would be Esther daughter of Nathan Samuel. She died on the 22nd day of the Hebrew month of Elul. Maurice Burnstein's Hebrew name was Moshe Ben Avrohom. The closest translation would be Moses son of Abraham. He died during the Hebrew month of Nissan. On the bottom is the acronym of five Hebrew letters, which stands for the translation "May the soul be bound up in the bond of eternal life". Hope that this is what you need....Jo
