Using Google translate I've got this:

Hier ruht
(Here lies)

Christian Otto von Goetz

Geboren Den 3 October 1833
(Born 3 October 1833)

Gestorben Den 20 Marz 1889
(Died 20 March 1889)

Keine worte konnen den schmerz
(No words can the pain)

Um dica schildern, keinen trost giebt
(To portray dica , gives no comfort)

Es fur  ?  verlust und nur der
(It fur ? loss and only the)

Tod kann die thranen trocknen,
(Death can dry the tears ,)

Die um dich fliessen, edelster catte
(The flow around you , noblest Catte)

Bester vater
(Best Father)

Sei cesegnet und celiebi bis
(Be cesegnet and celiebi up)

An das ende
(To the end)

Some of it translates well, some parts are nonsense, so I would be grateful if someone could translate properly please.

This epitaph brought a tear to my eye:

No words can describe the pain over you.
There is no comfort for your loss and only death can dry the tears that flow for you,
most noble spouse (Gatte), best father.

Be blessed (gesegnet) and loved (geliebt) until the end

Thank you so much for the translation.
It is indeed a beautiful epitaph.

I wonder where his descendents are now, it would be lovely if someone could 'claim' this.
I'll add it to FindAGrave.

Thank you again,


Betty
