This information was transcribed from the tombstones. I translated them because some of the months were in Czech.   TG  One of the verses:

V hrobe, klidno (tranquillity), v-jeba, lune, clovek, vice (more), nezcstune. Slodlsy, dlouhy (long), sen (dream or sleep), tu (this, that or here), sni (dreams).     

Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. He who does good is of God; he who does evil has not seen God.
John 3:1
