Other Notes:

[N1] The base of the top section is somewhat visible in one of the images and depicts the foot of a candelabrum with the faint outline of the bottom of the letters פ נ inscribed on either side.
[N2] The term 'kosher' implies that she kept an orthodox-Jewish household.
[N4] חיה is slightly abbreviated to 'חי [here and on the final line] to avoid inscribing the divine name יה.
[N8] Gravestone N16B also records the surname Schpatz.
