Lutheran All Faiths Cemetery has many gravestones in German, but St. John Catholic Cemetery has many in Italian. This one is old enough that it's not easy to read all of it, but this is what I made out and what Google made of it. (Maybe some of it is local Italian dialect?)




Qui aspetta la resurrezione dei giusti

Here he awaits the resurrection of the righteous

soffermate e pregate per chi incurante di fama e di lucri visse sol di religione e patria esempio ai buoni rimprovero ai tristi

stop and pray for those who careless of fame and lucri (money?) lived sol of religion and homeland example of good reproach to the sad
