Stone Condition:
the stone is broken into at least three pieces, with parts of the epitaph missing; the surface is in fair to good condition, with the surviving lines legible
Conservation:
The stone was one of many found at undocumented locations around Rohatyn and recovered under the direction of Mykhailo Vorobets and moved to the new Jewish cemetery in 2012. Mr. Vorobets later arranged to have the stone moved to the old Jewish cemetery in spring 2015.

Other Notes:
This is a dual headstone for a man and a woman, either a married couple or a man and his daughter, with the man's epitaph on the right and the woman's on the left. Each epitaph is documented here separately to support data searches, so the stone appears twice in the database.
