LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
I, ELMORE F. MORROW, of Wichita, Kansas, being of sound mind and memory, do
make, publish and declare this my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all former wills
and codicils made by me.
mo
I hereby request that my executor, hereinafter named, provide for my burial at Spring
Hill Cemetery, Shippensburg, Pennsylvania.
Bo
I will and direct my personal representative to pay all legally enforceable debts,
including the expenses of my last illness and funeral expenses, current bills and any and
all other expenses incurred in administering my estate.
Co
I may from time to time indicate my desire that specific gifts be made from my estate
upon my death. If I make known my desire in writing referring to or attached to this
Last Will and Testament, upon my death, the personal representative(s) shall distribute
the specific gifts as if the specific gifts had been made in this Last Will and Testament
itself. In dating the specific gifts document, it is not my intention to redate the entire
Last Will and Testament.
D°
I direct that my personal representative(s) divide my personal effects, including
automobiles, boats, sporting equipment, jewelry, furniture, furnishings, china,
glassware, silver and household equipment (except those items which are specifically
given to a beneficiary elsewhere in this Last Will and Testament in which case said
specific gift shall take precedence over this paragraph), among the following named
beneficiaries or their issue by representation as the named beneficiaries or their issue by
representation agree or, failing such agreement, in such manner as my personal
representative(s) may deem equitable. If my named beneficiaries or their issue by
representation do not agree, I give my personal representative(s) full discretion to
determine the division and distribution of the articles above referred to between my
named beneficiaries or their issue by representation, and such determination shall be
binding on all persons. The named beneficiaries for purposes of this paragraph are:
BOYD MORROW, MILDRED HEBERLIG, BETTY SNOKE, PEGGY GSELL and
ARLENE M. PLASTERER.
mo
I give, devise and bequeath all of the rest, residue and remainder of my estate and
property, of whatever kind and wherever situated, owned by me at the time of my death,
in equal shares to my beneficiaries, BOYD MORROW, MILDRED HEBERLIG,
BETTY SNOKE, PEGGY GSELL and ARLENE M. PLASTERER. If any beneficiary
does not survive me, I give said beneficiary's share to that beneficiary's issue by
representation. If the deceased beneficiary leaves no surviving issue, then that
beneficiary's share shall be given in equal shares to the other named beneficiaries or
their issue by representation.
Page 2, Last Will and Testament of ELMORE F. MORROW
I have intentionally and with full knowledge omitted to provide for all of my heirs who
are not specifically mentioned in the terms of this will.
Go
The distributions designated in this will are intended to be in lieu of any other claims, of
whatever nature and whether arising by statute or otherwise, by any taker hereunder,
and any taker who asserts any other claim or contests this will shall forfeit all interest in
any property, income or other benefit to him/her. Any property, income or other benefit
forfeited by the operation of this paragraph shall be distributed as part of the residue
pursuant to this Last Will and Testament.
Ho
If any beneficiary dies prior to the entry of an order, decree or judgment in my estate
distributing the property in question, or within thirty (30) days after the date of my
death, whichever is earlier, any interests which would have passed to said beneficiary
under the provisions of this Last Will and Testament are to be disposed of according to
the plan of distribution which would have been effective under this Last Will and
Testament if such beneficiary had predeceased me. It is my intention that any property
or interest which is distributed from my estate as a result of any transfer authorized by
my personal representative prior to the death of said beneficiary will not be revoked or
otherwise affected by the subsequent death of the distributee.
I. PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE(S):
I constitute and appoint ARLENE M. PLASTERER personal representative of
this my Last Will and Testament. I authorize and empower my personal
representative to sell, transfer and convey any and all of the property of my
estate, real and personal, and to execute, acknowledge and deliver good and
sufficient transfers and conveyances thereof.
If ARLENE M. PLASTERER is unable or unwilling to serve as personal
representative, I constitute and appoint PEGGY GSELL as personal
representative, to serve with all rights and responsibilities given to the original
personal representative(s).
o
If no personal representative named in this will is willing and able to act, a
personal representative or co-personal representatives may be selected by the
majority of adult beneficiaries named herein. The personal representative(s) so
selected and appointed shall have all rights and responsibilities hereinbefore
given to the named personal representative(s).
4. No bond will be required of the personal representative(s).
J°
In construing this will, words which import one gender shall be applied to any gender
where appropriate. The singular imports the plural and the plural imports the singular
where appropriate. Trustee includes any person or corporation from time to time

Claim Against the Estate of Elmore Morrow
No. 21-03-24
Dear Sirs:
Enclosed please find our Firm check in the amount of $5.00, which as I
understand is the fee for filing a claim in an estate. It is also my
understanding that one can file a claim in an estate by presenting a letter to
the Register of Wills, and that the Court does not require a specific pleading.
If this is not the case, please contact me at the number listed above and
advise me of the requirements for filing a claim.
This letter will serve as a claim against the estate of Mr. Morrow on
behalf of our client, Mary Frances Catt. Attached hereto is a copy of a
statement prepared by Mr. Morrow. As you will note from the attached sheet,
Mr. Morrow stated he owed our client $2,800. Please file this claim in the
estate of Elmore Morrow.

For dates of death on or after July 1, 1994 and before January 1, 1995, the tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the surviving spouse is 3%
[72 P.S.§ 9910 (a) (1.1) (i)].
For dates of death on or after January 1, 1995, the tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the surviving spouse is 0% [72 P.S. § 9116 (a) (1.1) (ii)]
The statute does not exempt a transfer to a surviving spouse from tax, and the statutory requirements for disclosure of assets and filing a tax return are still applicable even if
the surviving spouse is the only beneficiary.
For dates of death on or after July 1, 2000:
The tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers from a deceased child twenty-one years of age or younger at death to or for the use of a natural patent, an adoptive parent,
or a stepparent of the child is 0% [72 P.S. § 911 §(a)( 1.2)].
The tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the decedent's lineal beneficiaries is 4.5%. except as noted in 72 P.S. § 9116( 1.2) [72 P.S. § 9116(a)( 1 )].
The tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the decedent's siblings is 12% (72 P.S. § 9115(a)( 1.3)]. A sibling is defined, under Section 9102, as an
individual who has at least one parent in common with the decedent, whether by blood or adoption,

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
I, ELMORE F. MORROW, of Wichita, Kansas, being of sound mind and memory, do
make, publish and declare this my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all former wills
and codicils made by me.
mo
Eo
Bo
Co
I hereby request that my executor, hereinafter named, provide for my burial at Spring
Hill Cemetery, Shippensburg, Pennsylvania.
I will and direct my personal representative to pay all legally enforceable debts,
including the expenses of my last illness and funeral expenses, current bills and any and
all other expenses incurred in administering my estate.
I may from time to time indicate my desire that specific gifts be made from my estate
upon my death. If I make known my desire in writing referring to or attached to this
Last Will and Testament, upon my death, the personal representative(s) shall distribute
the specific gifts as if the specific gifts had been made in this Last Will and Testament
itself. In dating the specific gifts document, it is not my intention to redate the entire
Last Will and Testament.
I direct that my personal representative(s) divide my personal effects, including
automobiles, boats, sporting equipment, jewelry, furniture, furnishings, china,
glassware, silver and household equipment (except those items which are specifically
given to a beneficiary elsewhere in this Last Will and Testament in which case said
specific girl shall take precedence over this paragraph), among the following named
beneficiaries or their issue by representation as the named beneficiaries or their issue by
representation agree or, failing such agreement, in such manner as my personal
representative(s) may deem equitable. If my named beneficiaries or their issue by
representation do not agree, I give my personal representative(s) full discretion to
determine the division and distribution of the articles above refen'ed to between my
named beneficiaries or their issue by representation, and such determination shall be
binding on all persons. The named beneficiaries for purposes of this paragraph are:
BOYD MORROW, MILDRED HEBERLIG, BETTY SNOKE, PEGGY GSELL and
ARLENE M. PLASTERER.
I give, devise and bequeath all of the rest, residue and remainder of my estate and
property, of whatever kind and wherever situated, owned by me at the time of my death,
in equal shares to my beneficiaries, BOYD MORROW, MILDRED HEBERLIG,
BETTY SNOKE, PEGGY GSELL and ARLENE M. PLASTERER. If any beneficiary
does not survive me, I give said beneficiary's share to that beneficiary's issue by
representation. If the deceased beneficiary leaves no surviving issue, then that
beneficiary's share shall be given in equal shares to the other named beneficiaries or
their issue by representation.
Page 2, Last Will and Testament of ELMORE F. MORROW
Ho
I have intentionally and with full knowledge omitted to provide for all of my heirs who
are not specifically mentioned in the terms of this will.
The distributions designated in this will are intended to be in lieu of any other claims, of
whatever nature and whether arising by statute or otherwise, by any taker hereunder,
and any taker who asserts any other claim or contests this will shall forfeit all interest in
any property, income or other benefit to him/her. Any property, income or other benefit
forfeited by the operation of this paragraph shall be distributed as part of the residue
pursuant to this Last Will and Testament.
If any beneficiary dies prior to the entry of an order, decree or judgment in my estate
distributing the property in question, or within thirty (30) days after the date of my
death, whichever is earlier, any interests which would have passed to said beneficiary
under the provisions of this Last Will and Testament are to be disposed of according to
the plan of distribution which would have been effective under this Last Will and
Testament if such beneficiary had predeceased me. It is my intention that any property
or interest which is distributed from my estate as a result of any transfer authorized by
my personal representative prior to the death of said beneficiary will not be revoked or
otherwise affected by the subsequent death of the distributee.
PERSONAL REPRESENTATIVE(S):
I constitute and appoint ARLENE M. PLASTERER personal representative of
this my Last Will and Testament. I authorize and empower my personal
representative to sell, transfer and convey any and all of the property of my
estate, real and personal, and to execute, acknowledge and deliver good and
sufficient transfers and conveyances thereof.
If ARLENE M. PLASTERER is unable or unwilling to serve as personal
representative, I constitute and appoint PEGGY GSELL as personal
representative, to serve with all rights and responsibilities given to the original
personal representative(s).
3. If no personal representative named in this will is willing and able to act, a
personal representative or co-personal representatives may be selected by the
majority of adult beneficiaries named herein. The personal representative(s) so
selected and appointed shall have all rights and responsibilities hereinbefore
given to the named personal representative(s).
4. No bond will be required of the personal representative(s).
In construing this will, words which import one gender shall be applied to any gender
where appropriate. The singular imports the plural and the plural imports the singular
where appropriate. Trustee includes any person or corporation from time to time
Page 3, Last Will and Testament of ELMORE F. MORROW
