I, EDWARD J. SCHERDEN, of the Borough of New Cumberland, C~~rl~d
County, and Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, declare this to be m.ri lastt~ill and
,
revoke any will previously made by me.
r~.J
co
ITEM I: I devise and bequeath all of my estate of every nature and
wherever situate to my wife, ANNE D. SCHERDEN, if she survives me by thirty
(30) days.
ITEM II: Should my wife, ANNE D. SCHERDEN, fail to survive me by thirty
(30) days, I devise and bequeath all of my estate of every nature and wherever
situate, in equal shares to such of my children, MICHAEL SCHERDEN, MARY
FETTROW and KATHLEEN ROSENBERGER, as survive me by thi rty (30) days. Should
any of my above-named children predecease me or die on or before the thirtieth
(30th) day following my death, I devise and bequeath the share of such child
to his or her issue, per stirpes, living on the thirty-first (31st) day
following my death; and should any such child of mine leave no such issue
living on the thirty-first (31st) day following my death, I devise and
bequeath the share of such child to my issue, per stirpes, living on the
thirty-first (31st) day following my death.
ITEM III: I appoint my Executrix and her successors guardian of any pro-
perty which passes either under this will or otherwise to a minor and with
respect to which I am authorized to appoint a guardian and have not otherwise
specifically done so, provided that this appointment of a guardian shall not
supersede the right of any fiduciary in its discretion to distribute a share
Page 1 of 3
where possible to the minor or to another for the minor's benefit. Such guar-
dian shall have the power to use principal as well as income from time to time
for the minor's support and education (including college education, both gra-
duate and undergraduate) without regard to his or her parent's ability to pro-
vide for such support and education, or to make payment for these purposes,
without further responsibility, to the minor or to the minor's parent or to
any person taking care of the minor.
ITEM IV: I direct that all taxes that may be assessed in consequence of
my death, of whatever nature and by whatever jurisdiction imposed, shall be
paid from my residuary estate as a part of the expense of the administration
of my estate.
ITEM V: I appoint my wife, ANNE D. SCHERDEN, Executrix of this my last
will. Should my wife, ANNE D. SCHERDEN, fail to qualify or cease to act as
Executrix, I appoint my son, MICHAEL SCHERDEN, Executor of this my last will.
ITEM VI: I direct that my Executrix, Guardian, or their successors,
shall not be required to give bond for the faithful performance of their
duties in any jurisdiction.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this
