Side by Side for eternity. Individual postings for each stone, as well.
I did figure out the translation on Eliza's that I was confused about-- "marito e figli" means Husband & children - meaning she died leaving behind her spouse and children. On Giacomo's stone, it only says "Figli" since Eliza had already passed 10 years earlier.
"Dulenti" means Sleeping. At the top of each itsays, "Qui Riposa" which means Here lies.
so from the top to the bottom of the stone it should read--
Here Lies
(personal information & who they left behind)
Sleeping
Now it all makes much more sense!!
