Rune stone from Funbo kyrka, Uppland (U 987).
According to the Samnordisk runtextdatabas the inscription reads:
katil ' auk| |kuriþr ' litu rosa stin þino × oftiR þurstin sun sin uiþi auk rikuiþr ' þiR ristu ston aftiR bruþur sin × kuþ hialbi on þurstins '
Ketill ok Gyríðr létu reisa stein þenna eptir Þorstein, son sinn. Viði/Víði ok Ríkviðr þeir reistu stein eptir bróður sinn. Guð hjalpi ônd Þorsteins.
Ketill and Gyríðr had this stone raised in memory of Þorsteinn, their son. Viði/Víði and Ríkviðr, they raised the stone in memory of their brother. May God help Þorsteinn's spirit.
