English term or phrase: reunited
I am looking for a Latin phrase to go on my grandparents' headstone. I want to convey the idea that they are now reunited/ together again. Can anyone help with this? Many thanks.

Many thanks, Sergey!

Peer comments on this answer (and responses from the answerer)
agree  Joseph J. Brazauskas: I deem 'iterum' preferable to 'rursus' because it means 'again' in the sense of 'a second time'.
