expenses, as well as all taxes payable by reason of my death, be paid out of my residue
as soon after my death as practicable.
ARTICLE II: I give, devise and bequeath all of my Estate, real, personal
and mixed, of whatever nature and wherever situate, to GWENDOLYN W. CONNOLLY,
my wife, if she survives me for a period of thirty (30) days.
ARTICLE III: In the event that my wife GWENDOLYN W. CONNOLLY fails to
survive me for thirty (30) days, I give, devise, and bequeath all of my estate of every
nature, to be divided equally between my children who are the following: VALERIE C.
LAIR, New Cumberland, Pennsylvania, PATRICIA COURTOIS, of Landisville,

CHRISTOPHER S. CASSELL, of Duncannon, Pennsylvania, KENNETH M. CASSELL,

event that any of my six children are not living in my death, if those children had issue at
a~

of that child. If any of my children are not living at my death and did not have issue, then
that deceased child's share shall be divided equally among the remaining five children.
ARTICLE IV: I appoint GWENDOLYN W. CONNOLLY to be Executrix of
this, my Last Will and Testament. Should GWENDOLYN W. CONNOLLY my wife, fail to
qualify for any reason or cease to act as Executrix, or not be living at the time of my
death, i appoint KATHLEEN MATESEVAC as my "Successor Executrix". I direct that my
said Executrix and Successor Executrix shall not be required to enter bond or furnish
surety in any jurisdiction.
ARTICLE V: I authorize my Executrix and Successor Executrix to
exercise the following powers in addition to those given by law, to be exercised in their-
sole discretion:
(a) To retain any or all assets of my Estate, real, personal or mixed,
without regard to any principle of diversification, risk or productivity.
b) To invest in all forms of property without restriction to investments
authorized for Pennsylvania fiduciaries or executors.
(c) To sell at public or private sale, to exchange, mortgage or lease for
any period of time, and to repair, alter or improve any real or personal property,
and to give options for sales, exchanges, or leases, for surh prices and upon
such terms and conditions as they deem proper.
(d) To compromise any claim or controversy.

and partly in kind.
(f) To make any distribution hereunder for the benefit of minor
beneficiaries or others, who in their opinion, are incapacitated through illness,
age, or other cause, directly to the beneficiary thereof, to the natural or legal
guardian or the person who has custody of such beneficiary, or to apply any such
distribution directly to the benefit of such beneficiary. The receipt of such persons
to whom payment is made or entrusted shall be a complete discharge of the
fiduciary in respect thereof.
(g) In general, to exercise all powers in the management of any funds
which any individual could exercise in the management of similar property owned
in their own right upon such terms and conditions as to them may seem best, and
to execute and deliver all instruments and to do all acts which they deem
necessary or proper to carry out the purpose of this Will.
