To Christian whose opinion I respect:
The Elisabeth order is not just a cross but a special cross:

The cross on the grave is not this one.
Having a cross on the top of the stone is a kind of declaration:
" Look well all you folks ,here lies a christian " born or converted.
A courageos woman this Pepi.
I admire her more and more.
What is her Czernowitz connection ?
