TESTAMENT
OF
LORNA R. LINE
I, LORNA R. LINE, of 7 Alliance Drive, Apartment 203, Carlisle, Cumberland
County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding,
do make, publish and declare this to be my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and
making void all previous Wills and Codicils heretofore made by me.
FIRST
I order and direct my Executor hereinafter named to pay all of my just debts,
funeral expenses and expenses involved or connected with the administration of my estate
as soon after my death as is reasonably possible. I direct my Executor to pay all
inheritance, estate, succession and legacy taxes, to which my estate or the transfer of any
property hereunder may be subject, and to charge such taxes as part of the expenses of the
administration of my estate, being deducted and paid from the residue of my estate and
not to be deducted in any manner from any specific bequests made herein. However, my
Executor need not accelerate and pay those unmatured obligations which, in his, her or its
opinion, it might be proper and more advantageous to retain or renew and pay as they
become due and payable. If I do not own a burial plot or a grave marker at the time of my
death, I authorize my ExecutorlExecutrix, in his, her or its sole discretion, to purchase a

situate, in the following shares to the following entities:
(A) FIFTY (50%) PERCENT of my net estate to C.L.e. MINISTRIES

Pennsylvania, 19034;
(B) FIFTY (50%) PERCENT of my net estate to CHAPEL POINTE
AT CARLISLE, 770 South Hanover Street, Carlisle,
Pennsylvania, 17013.
In the event that it is impossible to provide for the distribution to either of these
named beneficiaries, due to their nonexistence at the time of my death or for other
reasons, the remaining beneficiary shall receive my entire estate.
THIRD
I grant my ExecutorlExecutrix the following powers in addition to and not in
limitation of such powers as my Executor/Executrix shall hold by law:

or any other statute or general rule of law in his, her or its absolute discretion,

powers possible, providing such investments do not unnecessarily prevent the
prompt settlement of my estate.
To sell or otherwise dispose of any property, real or personal, tangible or
intangible, at any time forming a part of my estate in any manner and on such
terms and conditions as my Executor/Executrix shall see fit in his, her or its
absolute discretion.
(g) To borrow money for the payment of taxes or for any other proper purposes in
the administration of my estate, and to mortgage or pledge estate assets as
security.
