WORRALL I, RICHARD J. WORRALL, of Mechanicsburg Borough, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing mind, memory and understanding, do hereby make, publish and declare this as and for my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all other Wills and Codicils heretofore made by me. FIRST I direct the payment of my just debts and the expenses of my last illness and funeral from my estate as soon after my death as conveniently may be done. If there be no cemetery lot available for my interment owned by me at the time of my death, I authorize my personal representative to purchase such cemetery lot with a contract for perpetual care, using therefor funds from my estate in such amount as she shall consider necessary and desirable, and I authorize my personal representative.t() cause S':?c, : title to or ownership of such lot so purchased to be vested in stitb? persQl:l' as my J -i,J .c, .; : l.:; :;<) personal representative shall designate. I (';-, (. )(.'j Further, I authorize my personal representative to expend funq~from my estate, ~) ,--f in such amount as my personal representative shall consider necessary and.;-desirable c-' for the purchase, erection and inscription of a suitable marker for my grave. SECOND I give and bequeath to Wichita State University the sum of Two Hundred Fifty Thousand ($250,000) Dollars, in memory of Forrest Eugene Richert. I desire that these funds be devoted by the University to create a memorial scholarship fund in the name of Forrest Eugent Richert. I further specify that the funds are intended for the educational support of students in the Voice and/or Theater Performance Programs; provided, that ~ !~ . \~ '-\ ('i ), SAIDIS, FLOWER & LINDSAY ATIORNEYS.AHAW 2109 Market Street Camp Hill, PA each recipient of scholarship funds shall be required to pursue concurrently a major in voice or theater performance, along with a minor in one of the following fields: business, accounting, economics, physics, biology, chemistry, education, engineering, mathematics, pre-medical studies, or another field of equivalently practical knowledge. My purpose in so specifying is to deter any such scholarship recipient from relying upon music as his or her sole prospective career. It is my intention to make this gift to the University during my lifetime, and, in the event that I have done so before my death, this gift under my will shall have been fully satisfied thereby and shall be void. THIRD I give and bequeath the sum of Fifty Thousand ($50,000) Dollars to St. Luke's Episcopal Church, Keller Street, Mechanicsburg, PA. I request that this bequest be devoted to specific tangible purposes of the church, and it shall not simply be devoted to the current, general operating expenses of the congregation. It is my intention to make this gift to the church during my lifetime, and, in the event that I have done so before my death, this gift under my will shall have been fully satisfied thereby and shall be void. FOURTH To each of the following nieces and nephews of mine who survive me I give and bequeath the sum of Ten Thousand ($10,000) Dollars: Linda M. (Worrall) Adams, Janice L.
