As Mother held Jess and wept, Ela clasped Tzana’s new blue mantle about her small body. So still. So quiet. She stepped back, allowing Father to close the white shroud. Dan’s face tightened, suppressing grief as he tied the final knots, then lifted Tzana from the pallet.

Working a path among the mourners in their modest home, Father entered a lamplit room at the back of the house. There, he tenderly placed Tzana’s body within an open stone-block crypt that had been hurriedly mortared and fitted to her diminutive form.

Waiting Roeh cousins lifted a flat stonework lid and rested it over the crypt.

Leaving one clay lamp inside to symbolically burn itself out, they shut Tzana in the family’s tomb. The instant the door was closed, the mourners lifted trowels of mud and plaster, sealing the door and smoothing it over until the entry seemed to be nothing more than a recessed section of wall. Separating death from life.
