this to be my Last Will and Testament and hereby revoke all other Wi:tls and Codicils that I
have made, including the Will dated February 7, 1986.
FIRST: It is my wish, and I direct, that after my death my body be cremated and
that a suitable disposition of my ashes be made.
SECOND: I give and bequeath to the individuals whose names are set forth in the
Schedule attached to this, my Last Will and Testament, the respective legacies described on the
said Schedule. I have signed this Schedule in the margin for purposes of identification.
Should any of these individuals fail to survive me by thirty (30) days or. should said person for
any reason be unable, or otherwise refuse, to accept the gift, then that gift shall become a part
of my residuary estate.
THIRD: I give, devise, and bequeath all the rest, residue, and remainder of my
Estate, of whatever nature and wherever situate, to my son, DAVID E. WESTON, SR. of
Shermans Dale, Pennsylvania, so long as he shall survive me by thirty (30) days. Should my
son fail to survive me by thirty (30) days, but be represented by children then living, these
children shall take, per stirpes, the share to which my son would have been entitled if then
living.
FOURTH: All interests of any beneficiary in the income or principal of this Estate,
while undistributed and in the possession of my Executor, even though vested and
distributable, shall not be subject to attachment, execution or sequestration for any debt,
contract, obligation or liability of any beneficiary and, furthermore, shall not be subject to
pledge, assignment, conveyance, or anticipation.
FIFTH: All inheritance, estate, and succession taxes (including interest and any
penalties thereon) payable by reason of my death shall be paid out of a.nd be charged generally
against the principal of my residuary estate, without apportionment or right of reimbursement
from any person. In the event that a substantial portion, as determined in the sole and absolute
judgment and discretion of my Executor, of the non-probate assets such as an annuity or
mutual funds are directed to be paid to a beneficiary or beneficiaries, so that the taxes referred
to herein would be paid out of the probate residue passing to the beneficiary or beneficiaries of
this will (whether or not the same as the beneficiary or beneficiaries under the non-probate
assets), my Executor, in the Executor's sole and absolute judgment and. discretion, shall have
the right to allocate the full or partial payment of the taxes to the beneficiary or beneficiaries of
the non-probate assets.
SIXTH: In addition to all rights and powers conferred by law, I authorize and
empower my Executor and his successors, in his absolute discretion and without necessity of
obtaining court approval:
A. To buy investments at a premium or discount.
B. To hold property unregistered or in the name of a nominee.
C. To give proxies, both ministerial and discretionary.

advantageous from the viewpoint of overall tax reductions, including, without limitation of the
foregoing, power and authority to claim administration or other expenses either as income tax
deductions or inheritance or estate tax deductions, without regazd to whether they were paid
from principal or income and without requiring adjustments between principal and income for
any resulting effect on income or estate taxes, and a deduction of such expenses for income tax
purposes shall be given effect in computing the respective shares of all persons interested in
my estate set forth herein, even though the effect is to increase the sharc: of one beneficiazy or
class of beneficiaries hereunder at the expense of another; and to make such adjustments, if
any, between beneficiaries with respect thereto as he shall deem appropriate in view of the
nature of the transaction and the amounts involved.
J. When permitted under the Internal Revenue laws of the United States, or
of any state, to join with my spouse in filing a joint income tax return without requiring my
spouse to indemnify my estate against liability for the tax attributable to my spouse's income,
and to consent to any gifts made by my spouse during my lifetime being treated as having been
made one-half by me for the purpose of federal laws relating to gift tax
K. To distribute in cash or in kind or partly in each.
The powers granted hereunder shall be exercisable with respec:t to all real and personal
property, including, but not limited to, income and principal held for :minors or disabled
beneficiaries at any time, until the actual distribution of all property. All powers, authorities
and discretion granted here shall be in addition to those granted by law and shall be exercisable
without leave of court. However, nothing herein shall be interpreted or construed to
encourage, authorize, empower, or permit the Executor to act or causf; anyone to act in a
manner contrary to or inconsistent with accepted standards of portfolio diversification and risk
management.
SEVENTH: I nominate, constitute, and appoint my son, DAVID E. WESTON, SR.,

resignation, or inability of my son to act for whatever reason in this capacity, then I nominate,
constitute, and appoint my friend, VIRGINIA STANZIOLA, of Frackville, Pennsylvania, as
Executrix of this, my Last Will and Testament.

faithful performance of his/her duties in any jurisdiction insofar as I ani able by law to relieve
him/her of such obligation. Any of my representatives shall be entitled. to reasonable
compensation for the performance of the duties set forth here.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal this ~~~K. day of
