Other Notes:
[N2-3] The literal 'God-fearing' is a translation that is widely-accepted, meaning 'devout'. 'God' is inscribed 'ד rather than 'ה, the standard abbreviation for Hashemהשם [The Name]. Appearing only in writing, 'ד represents an even-higher level of 'distancing' than that provided by 'ה, but is nevertheless voiced 'Hashem'.
[N5] The biblical name יששכר Yisaschar has a silent second ש letter and is pronounced Yisachar, to the extent that it is often spelled as ישכר.
See About Dobromyl for an index to headstone locations in the Wall of Memory.
Stone is recorded as Grounded because it is fixed in the Wall of Memory.
