Translation of the text on the sign:
On Friday, the eve of Purim,
12 Adar 2, 5757, 21.3.97
In the courtyard of "Beit Hana", in the "Apropo" cafe
three young women,
whose dream was peace, were killed by murderers in a heinous terrorist attack
Yael Gilad - a 32-year-old social worker
Michal Maidan-Avrahami - a 32-year-old doctor
Anat Rosen-Winter - a lawyer, 30
At the height of their flowering, their life’s song was cut short,
May God avenge their blood
May they be remembered forever
