I, JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ, a resident of the State of
Oregon, being of sound and disposing mind and memory and not
acting under duress or undue influence of any person or persons
whatever, do hereby make, constitute and declare this to be
my Last Will and Testament, revoking all wills and codicils
previously made by me.
I.
I declare that I am married to DONALD HERMAN SCHWARTZ,
and that I have been married since 1962, and that we were
married in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, and that I am now
in the process of a divorce.
It is my intention that DONALD HERMAN SCHWARTZ is not
named as a beneficiary of this my Will, and is not intended to
take, under the terms of this Will, any bequest, devise, or
interest whatsoever.
II.
I declare that I have two living children, namely:
JUDY MARIE SCHWARTZ, born March 31, 1964, residing at Camp
Page 1 - LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ
Hill, Pennsylvania, and KATHY LYNN SCHWARTZ, born September 4,
1968, currently residing with me at Portland, Oregon; whose
father is DONALD HERMAN SCHWARTZ, residing at Camp Hill, Pennsyl-
vania.
I declare that I have no deceased children.
No provision in this Will is intended to disinherit any
after-born or after-adopted children. Any after-born or after-
adopted children are intended to share equally with my named
beneficiaries.
The term "children" as hereinafter used shall refer to all
of the above-named children and to any other child born to or
adopted by me. I make no gift, bequest or devise to any of said
children, except as hereinafter stated.
III.
I hereby give, devise and bequeath my grandfather clock
to my daughter, JUDY MARIE SCHWARTZ.
IV.
I hereby give, devise and bequeath my Pennsylvania House
Dining Room Suite, including the table, six chairs, bench, two
leaves and corner cupboard to my daughter, KATHY LYNN SCHWARTZ.
V.
I hereby give, devise and bequeath the large gold and wood-
framed picture of Jesus in the Garden to my daughter, KATHY LYNN
Page 2 - LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ
SCHWARTZ.
VI.
Any specific devise set forth above which is not in
existence at the time of my death shall lapse. If any above-
named beneficiary of a specific bequest shall predecease me,
the gift shall lapse.
VII.
The rest and residue of all of my property, whether real,
personal or mixed, and wherever situated, which I may own or
be entitled to at the time of my death, or in which I may have
any interest whatsoever, vested or unvested, matured or not
matured, I give, devise and bequeath to my closest friend and
dearest companion, NANCY JANE NIXON, of Portland, Oregon.
VIII.
In the event that NANCY JANE NIXON does not survive me
by thirty (30) days, I then give, devise and bequeath the
rest and residue of all my property, whether real or personal
or mixed, and wherever situated and in which I have any interest
whatsoever, to my daughters, JUDY MARIE SCHWARTZ and KATHY LYNN
SCHWARTZ in equal shares, by representation.
If KATHY LYNN SCHWARTZ or JUDY MARIE SCHWARTZ is not thirty-
one years (31) of age, then whichever child is not yet thirty-one
Page 3 - LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ
(31) years of age, or both, if neither child has attained
thirty-one (31) years of age, shall receive her share in
trust. I name my brother, JAMES E. LEHMER, of Mechanicsburg,
Pennsylvania, as Trustee for such trusts. If he is unable or
unwilling to serve, I then name my good friend, KATHRYN K.
DISNEY, of Scottsville, New York, as Trustee for such trusts.
If she is unable or unwilling to serve, I then name KATHARINE
ENGLISH, of ENGLISH & METCALF, ATTORNEYS AT LAW, of Portland,
Oregon, as Trustee. The trustee shall take just compensation.
Such Trustee is empowered to use and invest the corpus of
each trust according to his/her own discretion for the benefit,
welfare and best interests of the beneficiaries, but in no event
is the Trustee to invest more than fifty percent (50%) of said
corpus in speculative investments, and no less than fifty percent
(500) of said corpus in insured investments, nor is said Trustee
to invest more than fifty percent (500) of the corpus in invest-
ments which are not readily liquidatable in the event of an
emergency, including, but not limited to, the acquisition of
real estate.
Said Trustee is empowered to invade the corpus of the trust
at her/his discretion in the case of emergency needs of the
beneficiary.
Fifty percent (50%) of the corpus of said trust is to be
distributed to each daughter upon her individual attainment of
the age of twenty-one (21). The remaining fifty percent (50%)
Page 4 - LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ
of the trust is to be distributed to each daughter upon her
individual attainment of the age of thirty-one (31). The
interest from said investments is to be reinvested and is not
to be distributed except with the principal.
In the event of a major emergency which requires funds in
excess of each daughter's individual trust, the Court is hereby
authorized to appoint an attorney for the other child at the
expense of the trust of the other child, and the Court is
hereby authorized to determine whether one trust of one child
ought to reasonably be invaded to supplement the trust of the
other child in the event of such a major emergency.
IX,
I hereby name and appoint NANCY JANE NIXON as the
guardian of my minor child, KATHY LYNN SCHWARTZ.
My minor child, KATHY LYNN SCHWARTZ, is with me at the
present time in Portland, Oregon.
I hereby state that I do not believe that KATHY's father,
DONALD HERMAN SCHWARTZ, will serve her well as a parent for
her remaining adolescent years.
He has consistently proved emotionally and psychologically
inadequate for the purpose of fulfilling KATHY's social, emotional,
and psychological needs as a growing, adolescent teenage girl.
Although he cares for her, and is able to meet her physical
needs, he has been incapable of identifying and adequately
Page 5 - LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ
providinq for her needs as a young woman.
I would direct this Court to appoint NANCY NIXON as the
parental figure most likely to provide for KATHY the rich,
fulfilling, and healthy environment in which KATHY can grow
as an adolescent young woman. NANCY NIXON is my closest and
dearest companion, and we have lived together as friends, room-
mates and business partners. We have engaged in many co-parenting
activities, and consider ourselves co-parents to KATHY. NANCY
NIXON has parented for many years, and has had considerable
experience in both the administration of daycare centers, and
in the actual daycare responsibilities. Her experience with
children as a parent and teacher has been extensive and rich.
She has a close and fond relationship with KATHY, and provides
the female role model as well as the counselor and parent model,
which KATHY needs at this period in her life.
Furthermore, KATHY's best friend is a young woman named
NICO, who lives here in Oregon, who is a substitute sister for
her, and who is in a daughter relationship with NANCY NIXON.
It is my sincerest wish that this family relationship
continue for KATHY's benefit and growth.
X.
In the event that NANCY NIXON is unable or unwilling to
serve as guardian of my minor child, KATHY, I hereby name my
brother, JAMES E. LEHMER, as her guardian. My brother has an
excellent history of working with children, is a caring and
Page 6 - LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ
understanding uncle, and has an excellent relationship with
KATHY. I believe that he would be a more appropriate, insight-
ful, and directional parent for KATHY than her own father.
XI.
I nominate and appoint NANCY JANE NIXON, of Portland,
Oregon, to serve as Executrix of this my Will, and to serve
without bond.
In the event that my divorce from DONALD SCHWARTZ is not
yet final, I hereby nominate and appoint DEBORAH R. GABER,
Attorney at Law, of Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, as Co-Executrix
with NANCY NIXON, of this my Will, and to serve without bond.
In the event that my divorce is final, but I still have
assets in Pennsylvania, I hereby nominate and appoint my
brother, JAMES E. LEHMER, to serve as Co-Executor with NANCY
NIXON of this my will, and to serve without bond.
In the event that NANCY NIXON is unable or unwilling to
serve as Executrix, I nominate and
of ENGLISH & METCALF, ATTORNEYS AT
to serve as Co-Executrix with DEBOR
my divorce is not yet final; or to
JAMES LEHMER, in the event that my
still have assets in Pennsylvania,
appoint KATHARINE ENGLISH,
LAW, of Portland, Oregon,
~H GABER, in the event that
serve as Co-Executrix with
divorce is final, but I
and to serve without bond.
In the event that my divorce is final, and that I have
no assets in Pennsylvania, and that NANCY NIXON is unable or
unwilling to serve as the Executrix of my estate, I hereby
Page 7 - LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ
nominate and appoint KATHARINE ENGLISH, Attorney at Law, of
Portland, Oregon, as the Executrix of this my Will, and to
serve without bond.
My Executrix shall have all of the power and authority
granted a personal representative under presently existing
Oregon statutes and such additional powers and authorities as
may be granted under Oregon statutes existing at the time of
my death. I authorize my executor to pay such debts, funeral
expenses, administration expenses, and taxes, which may be
chargeable against my estate from my estate prior to any dis-
tribution.
In addition, my Executrix is authorized to make any election
permitted by any tax law and no adjustment of any kind shall be
made between or among beneficiaries because of the exercise of
any of the powers under this Article.
My Executrix shall be entitled to take reasonable and
just compensation for her time and expenses in the execution
of my Will.
XII.
I direct that my Executrix shall provide for my funeral
at; her discretion and according to my wishes.
XIII.
I hereby order and direct that all my just debts, for
which proper claims are filed against my estate, including
Page 8 - LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT OF JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ
the administration expenses, taxes and the expenses of my
funeral and last illness be paid by my Executrix, herein
above named in this document, as soon after my death as
practical; provided, however, that this directive shall not
authorize any creditor to require payment of any debt or
other obligation prior to its normal maturity in due course.
XIV.
I direct that my estate be settled without the interven-
tion of any court, except to the extent required by law, and
that my Executrix shall settle my estate in such manner as
shall seem best and most convenient to her, and I empower the
same to mortgage, lease, sell, exchange and convey the real
and personal property of my estate, without an order of court
for that purpose, and without notice, approval or confirmation,
and in all other respects to administer and settle my estate
without the intervention of any court.
XV .
I declare that I have intentionally omitted from this my
Will my living relatives:
1. My mother, HELEN F. LEHMER, of Mechanicsburg, Pen-
nsylvania;
2. My father, MARK J. LEHMER, of Mechanicsburg, Pennsyl-
vania;

3. My brother, LARRY LEHMER, whereabouts unknown;
4, and my father-in-law and mother-in-law, MILLIS F.
SCHWARTZ and MARGARET R, SCHWARTZ, of Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania,
since they are already well and adequately provided for.
XV I .
If a court of competent jurisdiction rules invalid or
unenforceable any of the provisions of this Will, each such
provision shall be disregarded, but the remainder of this
instrument shall be given full force and effect. All questions
pertaining to the interpretation, construction and administration
of this instrument shall be determined in accordance with the
laws of the State of Oregon.
IN WITNESSWHEREOF, I, JEANNE LOUISE SCHWARTZ, have signed
and do declare this to be my Last Will and Testament this
