More Uppsala rune stones

After leaving Uppsala I found some more rune stones. I believe these are U962, U963, U964 and U965, based on finding them outside Vaksala church, but cannot find any information on their inscriptions or translations (can anyone read runes?).

UpdatedThis site suggests some translations.

“… in memory of himself while alive and … Fastgeirr(?)”
“Neskonungr had … Ígulbjôrn, his father; and Inga in memory of her husbandman. God and God’s mother … your(?) [soul], Ígulbjôrn.”
“Ketilfríðr had the stone placed for the spirit of Sveinn, (her) husbandman …-laug’s and(?) Ginnlaug’s.”
