Stone Setting

In the Jewish funeral tradition, the gravestone is generally erected between 6 and 12 months after the burial of the dead person.

Prayers are said and a small ceremony is held beside the grave. The inscription on the headstone is normally read out.

John: "You look upset mate..."

Jack: "Yeah, it was my uncle's stone setting this morning"
