SANNO ' ~ " I, WALTER J. SANNO, of 640 Highland Avenue, Mt. Holly, `Springs, r: 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, 1 hereby revoking and making void all previous Wills and Codicils heretofore made by me. ~~ FIRST I order and direct my Executor 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. I direct my Executor to pay all inheritance, estate, succession and legacy taxes, to which my estate or the transfer of any property hereunder may be subject, and to charge such taxes as part of the expenses of the administration of my estate, being deducted and paid from the residue of my estate and not to be deducted in any manner from any specific bequests made herein. However, my Executor need not accelerate and pay those unmatured obligations which, in his, 11er 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 Executor/Executrix, in his, her or its sole discretion, to purchase a GRIFFIE & ASSOCIATES Attorneys At Law 200 N.

'i ~- ,- ;.~_~ l {~ eu'~ 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 my entire estate together with all insurance proceeds thereon of whatsoever nature and wheresoever situate in equal shares to my children, BARRY L. SANNO and GERALDINE E. GARNER, who survive me by sixty (60) days, per stirpes. I direct my Executor/Executrix to divide among such beneficiaries all personal property of a sentimental or family nature (excluding cash, stocks, bonds and the like), including but not limited to jewelry, household goods, antiques, furniture and memorabilia, in accordance with a separate memorandum which I may place with my Will or deposit with my attorney. In the absence of such disposition by memorandum, I direct that the said tangible personal property be divided between my residual beneficiaries with due regard for their personal preferences in as nearly equal shares as practical, with the value of such dispositions being credited to the share of each respective recipient. If the said beneficiaries do not agree to the division of the personal property provided for hereunder, the decision of my Executor/Executrix, including the decision to sell the property at public or private sale and distribute the proceeds therei~rom as provided hereinafter, shall be final and conclusive on all parties. THIRD I grant my Executor/Executrix the following powers in addition to and not in limitation of such powers as my Executor/Executrix shall hold by law: (a) To retain all property received including the stock of any corporate fiduciary acting hereunder, provided such property remains productive.

(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 my Executor/Executrix the broadest investment powers possible, providing such investments do not unnecessarily prevent the prompt settlement of my estate. (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 Executor/Executrix 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.

(j) To undertake any and all acts deemed necessary and proper by my Executor/Executrix for the proper, advantageous and prompt management of the settlement of my estate.
