| Tombstone
of Israel Sharvit |
The burial tombstone of an
upright and straightforward man, he feared God and turned away from evil,
who walked in purity and dealt justly, humbly he entered and humbly he
departed and never did he take credit for himself, a lover of righteousness,
the honored and distinguished, the late Israel Sharvit, who passed on
to his world on the 5th day of Av (may God turn it to rejoicing), in the
year 5620 (1860), and a Jewish life has departed. May his soul be bound
in the bonds of life. |
