STONER, of 120 Beetem Hollow Road, Newville, Penn Township, 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. 1 I order and direct my personal representative 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. However, my personal representative 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. I do not wish to be buried or have a grave marker. I wish to be cremated. I authorize my personal representative, in his, her or its sole discretion, to purchase cremation services, and to expend sums from my estate for this purpose. 2 I give, devise and bequeath the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, together with all insurance proceeds thereon of whatever nature and wheresoever situate to my son, LAVERNE WILLIAM STONER, of 124 Beetem Hollow Road, Newville, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, providing that he survives me by sixty (60) days. ;~ -- _, } ~; Page 1 of 7 LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF WILLIAM R. STONER 3 Should LAVERNE WILLIAM STONER, predecease me or die on or before the sixtieth (60th) day following my death, then I give, devise and bequeath the rest, residue and remainder of my estate together with all insurance proceeds thereon ofwhatsoever nature and wheresoever situate to my grandson, LARS WILLIAM STONER, of 124 Beetem Hollow Road, Newville, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, provided he survives me by sixty (60) days. It is further my desire that my personal representative, after consultation with any heir or heirs of mine who survive me, and in his, her or its own discretion, choose such articles from my tangible personal property (exclusive of cash, stock certificates, bonds, and all other tangible evidences of intangible personal property) as he, she or it believes will be useful to such heir or heirs or desirable for him or her or them to have, either from a sentimental point of view or otherwise, and to deliver such articles to such heir or heirs or among such heirs in equal or unequal shares as determined by the further exercise of his, her or its discretion, provided no other heir objects to the distribution. All tangible personal property not so ~ distributed is to be sold, either publicly or privately, by my personal representative, adding the proceeds of such sale or sales to my residuary estate and to be disposed of in equal shares among my surviving heirs after payment of my estate debts, taking into account the tangible personal property otherwise provided to them. 4 Any devise or distribution under this Last Will and Testament which is payable to any beneficiary who may be under TWENTY-FIVE (25) years of age or, in the judgment ofmy personal representative, mentally disabled, shall be held in a separate trust by my niece, ~~I~TE ' e, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, as Trustee until such beneficiary reaches TWENTY-FIVE (25) years of age during such period of disability. In the case of a beneficiary under TWENTY-FIVE (25) years of age, the Trustee may distribute the entire remaining balance of principal and accumulated interest at or after attaining TWENTY-FIVE (25) ~~~~`~~ ~~'Y Page 2 of 7 LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF WILLIAM R. STONER years of age. During the term of any trust created pursuant to this Paragraph, the Trustee is authorized to expend and apply so much of the net income and principal of each such trust as the Trustee shall consider advisable for the health, maintenance, support, and education (including college education, undergraduate and graduate) of each such beneficiary until he or she attains TWENTY-FIVE (25) years of age, or until all such amounts are paid out of trust. I direct that no Trustee shall be required to give or post bond for the faithful performance of the Trustee's duties in this or any other jurisdiction. 5 I grant my personal representative the following powers in addition to and not in limitation of such powers as my personal representative shall hold by law: (a) To retain all property received including the stock of any corporate fiduciary acting hereunder, provided such property remains productive. (b) To join in any corporation, partnership, recapitalization, merger, reorganization or voting trust plan; to delegate authority with respect thereto; to deposit investments under agreements and pay assessments; and generally to exercise all rights of investors, including but not limited to, the voting of shares. (c) To manage, operate, repair, improve, mortgage or lease on any terms any real estate held or owned by my estate. (d) To operate any business that I may own at my death. (e) To invest any funds of my estate in any stocks, bonds, notes or other securities or property, real or personal, without regard to the principle of diversification or any other statute or general rule of law in his, her or its absolute discretion, it being my intention to give mypersonal representative the broadest investment powers possible, providing such investments do not unnecessarily prevent the prompt settlement of my estate. Page 3 of 7 LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF WILLIAM R. STONER (f) 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 personal representative 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. (h) To compromise claims without court approval including, but not limited to, any controversies with the United States of America or the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania concerning estate and inheritance taxes on any interests that may pass under this my Last Will and Testament. (i) To distribute in cash or in kind upon any division or distribution of my estate. (j) To undertake any and all acts deemed necessary and proper by my personal representative for the proper, advantageous and prompt management of the settlement of my estate. (k) In general, to exercise all powers in the management of my estate, which any individual could exercise in the management of similar property owned in his own right, upon such terms and conditions as to him, her or it may seem best and to execute and deliver all instruments and to do all acts which she deems necessary or proper to carry out the purposes of this, my Last Will and Testament. 6 No interest of any beneficiary of my estate, either in income or in principal, shall be subject to anticipation or pledge, assignment, sale or transfer in any manner, nor shall any beneficiary have the power in any manner to charge or encumber his interest either in income or principal, nor shall the interest of any beneficiary be liable or subject in any manner while in the possession of my personal representative for the liability of such beneficiary. Page 4 of 7 LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF WILLIAM R. STONER 7 I nominate, constitute and appoint LAVERNE WILLIAM STONER as Executor of this my Last Will and Testament. In the event LAVERNE WILLIAM STONER is deceased, unable or unwilling to serve or shall cease to serve for any reason whatsoever, then I nominate, constitute and appoint MMEL, as personal representative of this my Last Will and Testament. I direct that my personal representative shall not be required to give or post bond for the faithful performance of his, her or its duties in this or any other jurisdiction. I hereby declare it to be my express desire that my personal representative employ the law firm of Knight & Associates, P.C., of Carlisle, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, for legal advice and assistance regarding this my Last Will and Testament, they having considerable knowledge of my affairs, views and wishes respecting any matters that may arise at the probate of this instrument, the administration of my estate, and the execution of the powers herein mentioned.
