3/29/2026 2:46 PM Here lies MINDEL daughter of Reb Moshe

She passed away 27 Tishri 5767

May her soul be bound up in the bond of life.
---------------------------------------------
Mindel is a Yiddish name. (By the way, except for some Yiddish names, almost all Jewish gravestones are written in Hebrew).

'Reb' is an honorific; it does not mean rabbi.

Moshe is Moses. Many men with the name Moshe have Morris as their secular name. (There are no 'rules' for this, so his name might have been something different).
