LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
THOMAS R. GATEHOUSE
Prepared on November 3, 2000
LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
THOMAS R. GATEHOUSE
I, Thomas R. Gatehouse, of 36 Garland Court 2, Carlisle, 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. '
First
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 matured 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. If I
do not own a burial plot or a grave marker at the time of my death, I authorize my personal
representative, in his, her or its sole discretion, to purchase a burial plot and to erect a suitable
grave marker at my grave, and to expend sums from my estate for this purpose.
Second
I give, devise and bequeath the following property with all insurance proceeds thereon as
follows:
To my daughter, Candace J. Lagaza, I leave two metal mesh purses, the
little boy's green antique chair, six small hand painted dishes, Lennox
tiered dish, crystal goblets, gold and white sugar and creamer, and her old
bedroom set and cedar chest.
Page 1 of 8
To my son, Thomas H. Gatehouse, Sr., I leave the antique shotgun, all of my
Marine Corps items, the dining room table, chairs, breakfront, buffet, beer steins,
clothing, and jewelry.
Third
I give, devise and bequeath the rest, residue and remainder of my estate together with all
insurance proceeds thereon of what ever nature and wheresoever situate in equal shares to my
children, Candace J. Lagaza and Thomas H. Gatehouse, Sr., providing that they survive me by
sixty days per stirpes. Any insurance policies that I may have at the time of my death shall be
distributed in accordance with the beneficiary statement of each policy.
Fourth
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 o£ 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 ot 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.
Page 2 of 8
Fifth
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 of my personal
representative, mentally disabled, shall be held in a separate trust by my personal representative
as trustee until such beneficiary reaches twenty five (25) years of age or during such period of
disability. In the case of a beneficiary under twenty five (25) years of age, the trustee may
distribute the entire balance of principle and accumulated interest at or after the beneficiary'~
twenty fifth (25) birthday. 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 guardian shall be required to give or post bond for the faithful performance of the
guardian's duties in this or any other jurisdiction.
Sixth
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.

held or owned by my estate.
To operate any business that I may own at my death.
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 my personal representative the broadest investment powers '
possible, providing such investments do not unnecessarily prevent the prompt
settlement of my estate.
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.
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.

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.
To distribute in cash or in kind upon any division or distribution of my estate.
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.
Page 4 of 8
(k) In general, to exercise ali powers in the management of my estate which any
individual could exercise in the management of similar property owned in his own
fight, 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 he, she, or it deems
necessary or proper to carry out the purposes of this, my Last Will and Testament.
Seventh
t
No interest of any beneficiary of my estate, either in income of 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.
Ei~,hth
I nominate, constitute and appoint my daughter, Candace J. Lagaza, as Executrix of this
my Last Will and Testament. In the event my daughter is deceased, unable, or unwilling to serve
or shall cease to serve for any reason whatsoever, then I nominate, constitute and appoint my
son, Thomas H. Gatehouse, Sr., 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.
Ninth

law firm of Stephanie E. Chertok of Carlisle, Pennsylvania for the legal advice and assistance

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
THOMAS R. GATEHOUSE
Prepared on November 3, 2000
LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
THOMAS R. GATEHOUSE
I, Thomas R. Gatehouse, of 36 Garland Court 2, Carlisle, 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.
First
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. If I
do not own a burial plot or a grave marker at the time of my death, I authorize my personal
representative, in his, her or its sole discretion, to purchase a burial plot and to erect a suitable
grave marker at my grave, and to expend sums from my estate for this purpose.
Second
I give, devise and bequeath the following property with all insurance proceeds thereon as
follows:
To my daughter, Candace J. Lagaza, I leave two metal mesh purses, the
little boy's green antique chair, six small hand painted dishes, Lennox
tiered dish, crystal goblets, gold and white sugar and creamer, and her old
bedroom set and cedar chest.
Page 1 of 8
To my son, Thomas H. Gatehouse, Sr., I leave the antique shotgun, all of my
Marine Corps items, the dining room table, chairs, breakfront, buffet, beer steins,
clothing, and jewelry.
Third
I give, devise and bequeath the rest, residue and remainder of my estate together with all
insurance proceeds thereon of what ever nature and wheresoever situate in equal shares to my
children, Candace J. Lagaza and Thomas H. Gatehouse, Sr., providing that they survive me by
sixty days per stirpes. Any insurance policies that I may have at the time of my death shall be
distributed in accordance with the beneficiary statement of each policy.
Fourth
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 ot 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.
Page 2 of 8
Fifth
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 of my personal
representative, mentally disabled, shall be held in a separate trust by my personal representative
as trustee until such beneficiary reaches twenty five (25) years of age or during such period of
disability. In the case of a beneficiary under twenty five (25) years of age, the trustee may
distribute the entire balance of principle and accumulated interest at or after the beneficiary's
twenty fifth (25) birthday. 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 guardian shall be required to give or post bond for the faithful performance of the
guardian's duties in this or any other jurisdiction.
Sixth
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.
Page 3 of 8
(c)
(e)
(g)
(i)
(j)
To manage, operate, repair, improve, mortgage or lease on any terms any real estate
held or owned by my estate.
To operate any business that I may own at my death.
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 my personal representative the broadest investment powers
possible, providing such investments do not unnecessarily prevent the prompt
settlement of my estate.
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.
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.
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.
To distribute in cash or in kind upon any division or distribution of my estate.
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.
Page 4 of 8
(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 he, she, or it deems
necessary or proper to carry out the purposes of this, my Last Will and Testament.
Seventh
No interest of any beneficiary of my estate, either in income of 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.
Eighth
I nominate, constitute and appoint my daughter, Candace J. Lagaza, as Executrix of this
my Last Will and Testament. In the event my daughter is deceased, unable, or unwilling to serve
or shall cease to serve for any reason whatsoever, then I nominate, constitute and appoint my
son, Thomas H. Gatehouse, Sr., 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.
Ninth
I hereby declare it to be my expressed desire that my personal representative employ the
law firm of Stephanie E. Chertok of Carlisle, Pennsylvania for the legal advice and assistance
regarding this my Last Will and Testament, they having considerable knowledge of my affairs,
Page 5 of 8
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.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have set my hand to this my Last Will and Testament this
