Hi Lisa,
We have an ongoing project to index all burials in the Czernowitz Jewish
Cemetery. If you go to the JewishGen Online Worldwide Burial Registry
<http://www.jewishgen.org/databases/Cemetery/>, you will find a burial
record for Rifka LITTMANN, 1945, located at Area 124 or 135 ; formerly
Parcel 111, Plot 41. There is a photo associated with this listing, and
the tombstone seems to be in good condition, but partially illegible.
(The photo is from ca. 2002.) You can read the name and the year of death
quite clearly.
Good luck!
