LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
ROBERT J. O'CONNOR
I, Robert J. O'Connor, a legal resident of South Middleton Township, 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 that all my just debts and funeral expenses, including my grave
marker, shall be paid from the assets of my estate as soon as practicable after my decease.
SECOND: 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
apart of the expense of the administration of my estate.
THIRD: I bequeath those articles of my household furnishings, personal effects,
and personal property as set forth in a separate memorandum, which I intend to sign and keep
with my copy of this Will, to the persons named in that memorandum.
FOURTH: I devise and bequeath the residue of my estate, of every nature and
wherever situate, to my wife, Diane F. O'Connor, provided she shall survive me by thirty (30)
days. Should my wife, Diane F. O'Connor, predecease me or die on or before the thirtieth day
following my death, I devise and bequeath the residue of my estate, of every nature and wherever
situate, to my children, equally, provided that the share of any child who predeceases me or dies
on or before the thirtieth day following my death shall be distributed to his or her issue, per
stirpes, living on the thirty-first day following my death, and in default of any such then-living
issue, such share shall be added to the share or shares for my other children.
FIFTH: I nominate, constitute and appoint my wife, Diane F. O'Connor,
Executrix, of this, my Last Will and Testament. In the event of the renunciation, death,
resignation, or inability to act for any reason whatsoever of the said Diane F. O'Connor, I
nominate, constitute, and appoint Edward L. Schorpp, Esquire, Executor, of this, my Last Will
and Testament. I hereby relieve my Executrix or her successor from the necessity of posting
security in connection with their duties as such in any jurisdiction in which they may be called
upon to act, insofar as I am able by law so to do.
