LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
I, DORIS W. REA TH, of Southampton Township, Cumberland County, Perulsylvania,
declare this to be my Last Will and Testament and revoke any Will or Codicil previously made.:.by
me.
ITEM I: I direct that all my just debts (except as may be barred by a Statute of Limitations)
and my funeral expenses (including my gravemarker and expenses of my last illness) shall be paid
from my residuary estate as soon as practicable after my decease as a part of the administration of
my estate.
ITEM II: I bequeath those articles of my household furniture and furnishings and those
articles of my personal effects and personal property as I have or may set forth in a separate
memorandum (which is or will be signed by me, dated and make specific reference to this Will and
memorandum, which I shall place with my Will or deposit with my attorney), to the persons therein
designated.
ITEM III: I am presently not married (being WIDOWED) and I have three (3) surviving
children: ALLAN J. REATH, ROBERT C. REATH and RICHARD L. REATH. I make this will
in this context.
ITEM IV: I devise and bequeath all the residue of my estate of every nature and wherever
situate in equal shares, per capita, to such of my surviving children, ALLAN 1. REATH, ROBERT
C. REATH and RICHARD L. REATH, as are living on the thirty-first (31st) day following my
death.
ITEM V: Should any of my surviving children, ALLAN J. REATH, ROBERT C. REATH
w~.
SJ.
and RICHARD L. REA TH, predecease me or die on or before the thirtieth day following my death
the share that such deceased child would have received shall lapse and be added to the shares of
such children who do so survive me.
ITEM VI: If any property passes outright (either under this Will or otherwise) to a minor
(which shall be defined as anyone under twenty-one (21) years of age) and with respect to which I
am authorized to appoint a guardian and have not otherwise specifically done so, I decline to
appoint a guardian but instead authorize my Executor to distribute such property to a Custodian
selected by my Executor (and my Executor may act as such Custodian) as Custodian for the minor
under the Pennsylvania Uniform Transfers to Minors Act. Provided, however, that this
appointment shall not supersede the right of any fiduciary to distribute a share where possible to the
minor or to another for the minor's benefit.
ITEM VII: 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
part of the expenses of the administration of my estate.
ITEM VIII: I appoint my sons, ALLAN J. REATH, ROBERT C. REATH and RICHARD
L. REATH, Co-Executors of this my Last Will.
ITEM IX: I direct that my Executors, custodian, or their successors, shall not be required to
give bond for the faithful performance of their duties in any jurisdiction.
ITEM X: The interests of the beneficiaries hereunder shall not be subject to anticipation or
to voluntary or involuntary alienation.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I hereunto set my hand and seal to this my Last WiH and
~o/~.
