LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
Of
MILDRED E. SMITH
2~- o~-,353
I, Mildred E. Smith, of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound mind,
memory and understanding, do hereby make, publish and declare this as and for my
Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all other wills and codicils heretofore made
by me.
FIRST
I direct the payment of my debts and the expenses of my last illness and funeral
from my estate as soon after my death as conveniently may be done. If there be no
cemetery lot available for my interment, owned by me at the time of my death, I
authorize my personal representative to purchase such cemetery lot with a contract for
perpetual care, using therefor funds from my estate, and I authorize my personal
representative to cause title to or ownership of such lot so purchased to be vested in
such person as my personal representative shall designate.
Further, in this connection, I authorize my personal representative to expend
funds from my estate, in such amount as my personal representative shall consider
necessary and desirable, for the purchase, erection and inscription of a suitable marker
for my grave.
SECOND
I give, devise and bequeath my estate of whatever nature and wherever situate
as follows: a one-third (1/3) share to my brother, Elmer H. Potteiger, Jr., per capita; a
one-third (1/3) share to my sister, Betty Louise Graham, per stirpes and a one-third
(1/3) share to Deborah J. Bubb. In the event Deborah J. Bubb predeceases me or fails
to survive me by thirty (30) days, then I give, devise and bequeath her one-third (1/3)
share of my estate to her husband, William Bubb. In the event that I am predeceased
by Deborah J. Bubb and William Bubb, that portion of my estate which would have
passed to them shall pass to their issue in equal shares, per stirpes. In the event my
brother, Elmer H. Potteiger, Jr. predeceases me, that portion of my estate which would
have been passed to him shall be distributed to my sister, Betty Louise Graham and
Deborah J. Bubb in accordance with the above provisions.
THIRD
I direct that no executor or other fiduciary named, nominated, or appointed by
this my Last Will and Testament shall be required to post any bond or give any security
of any type for any purpose whatsoever, any law or rule of the court of the
commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any other jurisdiction to the contrary
notwithstanding. I direct that the law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania shall apply
to any interpretation or application of the validity of this instrument.
FOURTH
My executor shall have the following powers in addition to those vested in them
by law and by other provisions of this will, applicable to all property, real, personal or
mixed and wheresoever situate, including property held for minors, whether principal or
income, exercisable without court approval, and effective, with respect to each item of
said property until actual distribution thereof.
A) To retain, as investments of my estate or trust, any or all assets of my
estate, real, personal, or mixed, without regard to any principal of diversification, and to
purchase and acquire real or personal property and to hold any or all of such real and
personal property retained or acquired without making the same productive of income.
B) To permit the children, or any of them, to occupy any real estate
retained or acquired upon such terms and conditions as my executrix or trustee shall
deem proper.
C) To pay all taxes, charges and expenses of maintenance, upkeep,
improvements, development, protection, preservation and investment of any retained or
acquired real or personal property, such payments to be made from either principal or
income as my executrix or trustee shall determine.
D) To retain or invest any and all funds, whether principal or income, in
any real or personal property without restriction to legal investments; to purchase
investments at premiums; to exercise all rights of a security holder or share holder in
any corporation; and to lease, mortgage, pledge, give options upon or sell at public or
private sale and without approval of any court, any real or personal property, or portion
or portions thereof, irrespective of the manner or the which the
means
by
same
was
~.cquired by my said executrix or trustee.
E) To make payment or distribution herein provided for in cash, kind or
partly in cash and partly in kind, at valuations fixed by my executrix or trustee at the
time of distribution.
FIFTH
Any and all payment or payments of any sum or sums, whether in cash or in kind
and whether for principal or income, payable to an heir, or any of them, shall be made
upon the sole receipt of the respective individual to whom the payment is made, and
free from anticipation, alienation, assignment, attachment, and pledge, and free from
control by the creditors of any such beneficiary.
SIXTH
I appoint my brother, Elmer H. Potteiger, Jr., Executor of this my Last Will and
Testament. Should my said Executor fail to survive me or for any reason fail to qualify
as Executor, then I appoint Deborah J. Bubb, Executrix of this my Last Will and
Testament.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal to this,
my Last Will and Testament, consisting of four (4) typewritten pages, the first three (3)
of which bear my signature in the margin for the purpose of identification, this
of April, 2001.

For dates of death on or after July 1, 1994 and before January 1, 1995, the tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the surviving spouse is 3%
[72 P.S. §9116 (a) (1.1) (i)].
For dates of death on or after January 1, 1995, the tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the surviving spouse is 0% [72 P.S. §9116 (a) (1.1) (ii)].
The statute does not exempl a transfer to a surviving spouse from tax, and the statutory requirements for disclosure of assets and filing a tax return are still applicable even if
the surviving spouse is the only beneficiary.
For dates of death on or after July 1, 2000:
The tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers from a deceased child twenty-one years of age or younger at death to or for the use of a natural parent, an adoptive parent,
or a stepparent of the child is 0% [72 P.S. §9116(a)(1.2)].
The tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the decedent's lineal beneficiaries is 4.5%, except as noted in 72 P.S. §9116(1.2) [72 P.S. §9116(a)(1)].
The tax rate imposed on the net value of transfers to or for the use of the decedent's siblings is 12% [72 RS. §9116(a)(1.3)]. A sibling is defined, under Section 9102, as an
individual who has at least one parent in common with the decedent, whether by blood or adoption.

LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
MILDRED E. SMITH
I, Mildred E. Smith, of Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound mind,
memory and understanding, do hereby make, publish and declare this as and for my
Last Will and Testament, hereby revoking all other wills and codicils heretofore made
by me.
FIRST
I direct the payment of my debts and the expenses of my last illness and funeral
from my estate as soon after my death as conveniently may be done. If there be no
cemetery lot available for my interment, owned by me at the time of my death, I
authorize my personal representative to purchase such cemetery lot with a contract for
perpetual care, using therefor funds from my estate, and I authorize my personal
representative to cause title to or ownership of such lot so purchased to be vested in
such person as my personal representative shall designate.
Further, in this connection, I authorize my personal representative to expend
funds from my estate, in such amount as my personal representative shall consider
necessary and desirable, for the purchase, erection and inscription of a suitable marker
for my grave.
SECOND
I give, devise and bequeath my estate of whatever nature and wherever situate
as follows: a one-third (1/3) share to my brother, Elmer H. Potteiger, Jr., per capita; a
one-third (1/3) share to my sister, Betty Louise Graham, per stirpes and a one-third
(1/3) share to Deborah J. Bubb. In the event Debo~'al~ ,J. BUi:)b P~'~c~-a~ ~e- or fails
to survive me by thirty (30) days, then I give, devise and bequeath her one-third (1/3)
share of my estate to her husband, VVilliam Bubb. In the event that I am predeceased
bY Deborah J. Bubb and William Bubb, that portion of my estate which would have
passed to them shall pass to their issue in equal shares, per stirpes. In the event my
brother, Elmer H. Potteiger, Jr. predeceases me, that portion of my estate which would
have been passed to him shall be distributed to my sister, Betty Louise Graham and
Deborah J. Bubb in accordance with the above provisions.
THIRD
I direct that no executor or other fiduciary named, nominated, or appointed by
this my Last Will and Testament shall be required to post any bond or give any security
of any type for any purpose whatsoever, any law or rule of the court of the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania or any other jurisdiction to the contrary
notwithstanding. I direct that the law of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania shall apply
to any interpretation or application of the validity of this instrument.
FOURTH
My executor shall have the following powers in addition to those vested in them
by law and by other provisions of this will, applicable to all property, real, personal or
mixed and wheresoever situate, including property held for minors, whether principal or
income, exercisable without court approval, and effective, with respect to each item of
said property until actual distribution thereof.
A) To retain, as investments of my estate or trust, any or all assets of my
estate, real, personal, or mixed, without regard to any principal of diversification, and to

personal property retained or acquired without making the same productive of income.
B) To permit the children, or any of them, to occupy any real estate
retained or acquired upon such terms and conditions as my executrix or trustee shall
deem proper.

improvements, development, protection, preservation and investment of any retained or
acquired real or personal property, such payments to be made from either principal or
income as my executrix or trustee shall determine.

any real or personal property without restriction to legal investments; to purchase
investments at premiums; to exercise all rights of a security holder or share holder in
any corporation; and to lease, mortgage, pledge, give options upon or sell at public or
private sale and without approval of any court, any real or personal property, or portion
or portions thereof, irrespective of the manner or the means by which the same was
,~acquired by my said executrix or trustee.
E) To make payment or distribution herein provided for in cash, kind or
partly in cash and partly in kind, at valuations fixed by my executrix or trustee at the
time of distribution.
FIFTH
Any and all payment or payments of any sum or sums, whether in cash or in kind
and whether for principal or income, payable to an heir, or any of them, shall be made
upon the sole receipt of the respective individual to whom the payment is made, and
free from ant~clpabon, alienation, assignment, attachment, and pledge, and free from
control by the creditors of any such beneficiary.
SIXTH

Testament. Should my said Executor fail to survive me or for any reason fail to qualify
as Executor, then I appoint Deborah J. Bubb, Executrix of this my Last Will and
Testament.
