LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
SELDEN L. JONES
I, SELDEN L. JONES, of West Pennsboro Township (mailing address: 396 Greason
Road, Carlisle, Pennsylvania 17013), Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and
disposing mind, memory and understanding, do hereby make, publish and declare this as and for
my Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking and making void any and all Wills by me at any time
heretofore made.
1. I direct my hereinafter named Executrix or Executrices to pay all of my just debts and
funeral expenses as soon after my death as may be found convenient to do so. I direct that all
inheritance, transfer, succession, estate and death taxes which may be payable on account of my
death, shall be payable from the residue of my estate, regardless of whether the assets upon which
such taxes are based are included in my probate estate. I further direct that my funeral be
conducted by Hoffman-Roth Funeral Home, 219 North Hanover Street, Carlisle, Pennsylvania,
that there be no public viewing of my body and that my body be interred on my burial lot located
in Cumberland Valley Memorial Gardens along Ritner Highway near the Borough of Carlisle,
Pennsylvania.
2. All of the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, real, personal and mixed, and
wheresoever the same may be situate, I give, devise and bequeath to my wife, Freda M. Jones,
her heirs and assigns, to the exclusion of my children, born and unborn, provided my said wife,
Freda M. Jones, shall survive me by a period of ninety (90) days.
3 . Should my said wife, Freda M. Jones, predecease me or fail to survive me by the
aforesaid period of ninety (90) days, then in such event all of the rest, residue and remainder of
my estate, real, personal and mixed and wheresoever the same may be situate, I give, devise and
bequeath as follows:
a) I give and bequeath the sum of $5,000.00 to each grandchild of mine who shall
survive me by a period of ninety (90) days, and at the present time I have only two grandchildren
who are Kelli R. Sealover and Heather N. Sealover.
b) The balance thereof I give, devise and bequeath in equal shares to such of my three
(3) daughters as shall survive me by a period of ninety (90) days, their heirs and assigns, they
being Maurinda Wingard, Melinda Howe, and Melissa Sealover, but should any of my said three
daughters fail to survive me by a period of ninety (90) days, then the share such deceased daughter
would have received shall pass to such of her issue as shall survive me by a period of ninety (90)
days, per stirpes, and if there be no such issue then the same shall lapse and be added to the share
or shares of my other daughters, per stirpes.
4. I hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my wife, Freda M . Jones, as Executrix of this
my Last Will and Testament but should she predecease me or fail to qualify or cease serving as
such, then in such event I nominate, constitute and appoint my three daughters, or any of them,
they being Maurinda Wingard, Melinda Howe, and Melissa Sealover, as co-Executrices of this my
Last Will and Testament, and I further direct that none of them shall be required to post any bond
to secure the faithful performance of her duties in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or in any
other jurisdiction.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal to this my Last Will
and Testament written on one (1) page, this 17th day of February, 1995.
