May His Sleep Be That of The Righteous
(Inscribed on left panel)
"Blessed was thy life to us
Thy children now in grief
Bereft of thee we can but weep
Console our loss we must
United now with Mother Dear
Enjoy both heavenly peace
May both your pleasures God's increase
While you are with us so near
Your memory with us will linger
Till that great day will come
When all of us be summoned home
And none be left alone"
