My eye, my eye, drips water

upon the passing of my daughter,

the girl Rachel Leah

daughter of Yisrael Yitzchak

Karpenkopf
--------------------------------------------------
The word used for "girl" is Yaldah, which means that she had not yet reached the age of Bat Mitzvah.

The above is everything that is on the viewable section of the stone. (Only half of the family name appears).

Yisrael is Israel; Yitzchak is Isaac.
