Stone Condition:

good; the double stone is damaged around the edges and some of the lettering is worn off, but most of the epitaph is legible

Conservation:

The double stone was discovered by Julian Lahun and Andriy Lahun on a property they own in the Solonka district south of Lviv; apparently the stone was mixed with miscellaneous building rubble purchased to support construction on their property. They alerted Sasha Nazar of the Lviv Volunteer Center, who organized the recovery of the stone to the new Jewish cemetery in Lviv.
