of my last illness and disposition of my remains shall be paid from
my residuary estate as soon as practicable after my death and as
part of the expense of the administration of my estate.
ITEM 5. In addition to the powers conferred by the
common law, by statute, or by any other provisions hereof, my

under the circumstances.
(b) To assent to, join in, and vote in favor of any
