I am retired from the r~l~ary ser~kce of- = the United States. ~? ~' `.° ,' ~=' %-T w ~- FIRST: I direct that the expenses of my last illness and funeral, the expenses of the administration of my estate, and all estate, inheritance and similar taxes payable with respect to property included in my estate, whether or not passing under this will, and any interest or penalties thereon, shall be paid out of my residuary estate, without apportionment and with no right of reimbursement from any recipient of any such property. SECOND: It is my desire that, upon my death, I be buried with full military honors at ~ 7Z„ e ~ ~~o-r~ //~' 4~ i vk 4 ~ C~ ~,.,~~Zr -'~7 ,_. ~. ~ THIRD: I give the sumo Tw y Five Dollars ($25.00) to my daughter, LISA ANN RODGERS LALLY, if she survives me. If she shall not survive me, said cash bequest shall not lapse but rather shall be given to the heirs of my daughter, LISA ANN RODGERS LALLY. FOUKTH: I give all the rest, residue and remainder of my property and estate, both real and personal, of whatever kind and wherever located, that I own or to which I shall be in any manner entitled at the time of my death (collectively referred to as my "residuary estate"), as follows: (a) If my son, JAMES ALLEN RODGERS survives me, to my son, JAMES ALLEN RODGERS. (b) If my son, JAMES ALLEN RODGERS does not survive me, my residuary estate shall be paid and distributed to any then living issue of my son, JAMES ALLEN RODGERS, per stirpes. (c) If my son does not survive me and there shall be no issue of my son then living, my residuary estate shall be paid and distributed to my daughter-in-law LYNN GORE RODGERS if she shall survive me. FIFTH: If any property of my estate vests in absolute ownership in a minor or incompetent, my Executor, at any time and without court authorization, may: distribute the >,,~ lam.. ` ~ r whole or' any part of such property to the beneficiary; or use the whole or any part for the health, education, maintenance and support of the beneficiary; or distribute the whole or any part to a guardian, committee or other legal representative of the beneficiary, or to a custodian for the beneficiary under any gifts to minors or transfers to minors act, or to the person or persons with whom the beneficiary resides. Evidence of any such distribution or the receipt therefor executed by the person to whom the distribution is made shall be a full discharge of my Executor from any liability with respect thereto, even though my Executor may be such person. If such beneficiary is a minor, my Executor may defer the distribution of the whole or any part of such property until the beneficiary attains the age of eighteen (18) years, and may hold the same as a separate fund for the beneficiary with all of the powers described in Article SEVENTH hereof. If the bene- ficiary dies before attaining said age, any balance shall be paid and distributed to the estate of the beneficiary. SIXTH: I appoint my son, JAMES ALLEN RODGERS to be my Executor. If my son, JAMES ALLEN RODGERS shall fail to qualify for any reason as my Executor, or- having qualified shall die, resign or cease to act for any reason as my Executor, I appoint my daughter-in-law, LYNN GORE RODGERS as my Executor. I direct that no Executor shall be required to file or furnish any bond, surety or other security in any jurisdiction. SEVENTH: I grant to my Executor all powers conferred on executors under the Pennsylvania Probate, Estates and Fiduciaries Code, as amended, or any successor thereto, and all powers conferred upon executors wherever my Executor may act. I also grant to my Executor power to retain, sell at public or private sale, exchange, grant options on, invest and reinvest, and otherwise deal with any kind of property, real or personal, for cash or on credit; to borrow money and encumber or pledge any property to secure loans; to exercise all powers of an absolute owner of property; to compromise and release claims with or without consideration; and to employ attorneys, accountants and other persons for services or advice. The term "Executor" wherever used herein shall mean the executors, executor, executrix or administrator in office from time to time. IIIGHTH: I direct that for purposes of this will a beneficiary shall be deemed to predecease me unless such beneficiary survives me by more than thirty days. NINTH: Except as otherwise provided in this will, I have intentionally failed to provide for any other- relatives or other persons, whether claiming to be an heir of mine or not. Insofar as I have failed to provide in the will for any of my issue now living or later born or adopted, such failure is intentional and not occasioned by accident or mistake. If any person named as a beneficiary under this will institutes a will contest, acts as a party to a will contest initiated by someone else, or aids and abets anyone instituting a will contest, I direct that any bequest, devise, or share of my residuary estate that would otherwise go to him shall lapse, as if he had predeceased me. 'TENTH: I have served in the Armed Forces of the United States. I therefore request that my Executor make appropriate inquiries to ascertain whether there are any benefits to which I, my dependents or my heirs may be entitled by virtue of any military affiliation. I -~ ;=%~`~ z~ ,-- -<< -- ,, 2 specifically request that my Executor consult with a retired affairs officer at the nearest military installation, the Department of Veterans Affairs, and the Social Security Administration. This document was prepared under the authority of 10 U.S.C. § 1044 and implementing military regulations and instructions, by Captain Victoria Ko, U.S. Army, who is licensed to practice law in the State of New York.
