Ädelheid Funk (Hirsch)

Burial www.genteam.at

Here is interred (written on all stones) The important and modest woman Mrs. Aidel (there is an acronym after her name but I don't know what it stands for) Wife of the deceased, the Torah scholar, Ber Funk, of blessed memory From the city Prosnitz Who went to her world on Monday, 6 Teves From women (?) That word has dots on top so aside from its meaning which I don't know, it indicates the year of death as 5622 (1861-2)

"(there is an acronym after her name but I don't know what it stands for)" the two alphabets after her name are נ"ע which stands for "נשמתה עדן" which means that her soul should rest in eden. you wrote: "women (?) That word has dots on top so aside from its meaning which I don't know, it indicates the year of death as 5622 (1861-2" these two words are based on a verse in -שופטים ה,כד- which means "women of the tents should be blessed" and that dotted the word תברך which stands for the year תרכב\5622.

(The rest of the lines are reminiscent of A Woman of Valor. Each line starts with the letters of her first & last name respectively, as indicated by the dot on top of each first letter.)

A woman of Valor was she, the crown of her husband Fear of God was her treasure & glory Pleasant ways & straight(ness) were her way She did not (benefit from) (repay) bad all the days of her life, Open wide were her doors And a cloud was attached on the doors of her tent Pleasant in her ways and undefiled (says kosher) Her children rise and praise her at the gates with her very own deeds
