I, ALVIN D. KNAUB of 1733 Pine Road, Newville, Cumberlan�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 Executor 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 further direct that alI inheritance, transfer, succession, estate and death taxes,
induding interest and penalties thereon, which may be payable on account of my death
shall be payable from the residue of my estate regard►ess of whether the assets upon
which such taxes are based are included in my probate estate.
2. I declare that I am an unremarried widower, and that I have six (6)
children who are: SANDRA SWARTZ, LINDA COLEMAN, VICKI RUSSEL,
DEBORAH SWARTZ, CAROL LOEBER, AND DENNIS KNAUB. 1 further declare
that I have one stepchild, VONNIE YOUNG. For all purposes of this my Last Will and
Testament, it is my intent to treat my stepdaughter, Vonnie Young, as if she were a
namral child of mine.
3. 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 in equal
shares, one share for each of my children, including my one stepchild as mentioned
above, and one share for my friend, NANCY STONE, as shall survive me by a period of
ninery (90) days, the share any deceased child would have received to pass to his or her
issue, per stirpes, and if there be no such issue, said share shall lapse and be added to the
remaining share or shares, per stirpes. Should my friend Nancy Stone fail to survive me
as aforesaid, the share that she would have otherwise received shall lapse and be added to
the remaining share or shares.
4. Should any person less than 21 years of age be entitled to a distribution
pursuant to this my Last Will and Testament, the share that person would otherwise have
received shall be paid to my hereinafter-named Executor in trust. I authorize my herein
named Executor to receive and invest the same to or for the benefit of such child, and to
pay the income therefrom at least annually to said child and to distribute the entire
principal held i� trust together with any accrued and unpaid interest to the said child upon
him or her attaining the age of 21 years.
5. I hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my son, DENNIS KNAUB, my
daughter, DEBORAH SWARTZ, and my daughter, CAROL LOEBER, as Co-Executors
of this my Last Will and Testament, but should any of them be unable to serve as such,
the remaining Executor or Executors shall serve as Co-Executors, and i further direct that
none of them shall be required to post any bond to secure the faithful performance of his
or her duties in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or in any other jurisdiction.
6. In addition to the powers conferred by law, my hereinbefore named
Trustees and Executors and their respective successors, are empowered:
a. To invest any part of the trust corpus in such securities,
investments, or other property as may be deemed advisable and proper, irrespective of
whether the same are authorized for the investment of trust funds under the laws of any
governing jurisdiction.
b. With respect to any corporation, the stocks, bonds, or other
securities of which may be held, to vote in person or by proxy on any shares of stock; to
consent to the merger, consolidation or reorganization of such corporations; to consent to

either for the conversion of the same into other securities or for the purchase of additional

connection therewith; and generally to have and exercise as to all such stocks, bonds and
other securities, the powers of a� individual owner who is not under trust obligatio�.
c. To hold the trust corpus in one or more consolidated funds in
which separate shares shall have undivided interests.

any distribution thereof directed by the provisions of the trust, to make such division or
distribution, either in cash or in kind, or partly in cash and partly in kind, as shall be
deemed most expedient, and in making any division or distribution in kind may allot any
