�� �� � ��
Patricia A. Knipe
I, Patricia A. Knipe, of Mechanicsburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of
lawful age, sound mind and memory, and under no restraint, do publish this as my Last
Will, revoking all other Wills or Codicils previously made by me.
FIRST: All expenses, fees, costs, and taxes related to this estate shall be paid from
the probate estate assets, including but not limited to funeral expenses, grave marker, the
costs of my final illness, Inheritance, Estate and Fiduciary Taxes; and all gifts and bequests
shall be paid from the net distributable estate.
SECOND: I make the following specific bequests:
(A) To my daughter-in-law, Patricia L. Knipe (the surviving spouse of my
deceased son, Jack R. Knipe, Jr.), the sum of Five Hundred Dollars ($500.00) in
recognition of her continued love and devotion, but also in recognition that she has already
directly received financial benefits from Jack R. Knipe Jr.'s Estate, provided she survives
me by 30 days, per stirpes.
(B) To my son, Kevin L. Knipe, any and all automobiles which I own at the
time of my death, free and clear from any liens and encumbrances, which, if any, shall be
paid from my Residuary Estate (defined below) provided he survives me by 30 days, per
stirpes.
(C) To my Granddaughters, Jennifer L. Noll (the only daughter of my
deceased son, Jack R. Knipe, Jr.) and Erin Knipe (the only daughter of my Son, Kevin L.
Knipe), any and all jewelry which I own at the time of my death, free and clear from any
liens and encumbrances, which, if any, shall be paid from my Residuary Estate (defined
below), to be divided as equally as is practicable, in the sole determination of my Executors
provided they survive me by 30 days, per stirpes.
(D)To my Granddaughter, Jennifer L. Noll and my Son, Kevin L. Knipe, any
and all furniture, household and personal effects, and other tangible personalty of like
nature, other than cash or securities, together with any existing insurance thereon and
which I own at the time of my death, free and clear from any liens and encumbrances,
which, if any, shall be paid from my Residuary Estate (defined below), to be divided as
f�(�
equally as is practicable, in the sole determination of my Executors provided they survive
me by 30 days, per stirpes.
(E) To the following individuals provided they survive me by 30 days, per
stirpes, the following percentages and share of the net(of all taxes, debts and expenses of
sale, which shall be paid from the gross proceeds) proceeds from the sale of any real
estate which I own at the time of my death and which I hereby direct my Executors to sell
at fair market value as soon as is practicable after my death:
(1) To my Son, Kevin L. Knipe-40%;
(2) To my Granddaughter, Jennifer L. Noll-35%;
(3) To my Grandson, Jack R. Knipe, III (Rusty)-6.25%;
(4) To my Granddaughter, Erin Knipe-6.25%;
(5) To my Grandson, Clinton Knipe-6.25%; and
(6) To my Grandson, Ryan Knipe-6.25%.
THIRD: I give, devise and bequeath the rest, residue and remainder of my
estate, real, personal, or mixed, of every kind and nature, and wherever situated, which
I may own, or hereafter acquire, or have a right to dispose of at my death ("Residuary
Estate") to my Granddaughter, Jennifer L. Noll and my Son, Kevin L. Knipe, provided
they survive me by 30 days, per stirpes.
FOURTH: In making my specific bequests in Paragraph Second and Residuary
gifts in Paragraph Third above, I am fully aware of all my relations, understand financial
resources and have given great though to the disposition of my estate. I have given
great thought to the distribution of my estate. Kevin L. Knipe is my only surviving child,
and Jennifer L. Noll has been more like a child than a grandchild to me since her father
(my son), Jack R. Knipe, Jr. died and even more so since my husband, Jack R. Knipe,
Sr. died. I love all my family members very much. I have carefully considered my
decision to treat my other grandchildren (Erin Knipe, Clinton Knipe, Ryan Knipe and
Jack R. Knipe, III) equally.
FIFTH: I nominate and appoint my son, Kevin L. Knipe and granddaughter,
Jennifer L. Noll to be the Executors of my Last Will, granting to them authority to sell
and convey any or all of my estate, real and personal, or mixed, upon such terms and
prices as he and she shall deem proper, without obtaining any prior order of the court
therefore. I also grant them full power and authority in the settlement of my estate, to
compromise, adjust, and settle any and all debts and liabilities due to or from my estate,
��l�
for such sums, and upon such terms and conditions as he shall deem best. In the event
that either shall for any reason fail to qualify or cease to act, then I nominate the other,
solely to act as Executor (trix).
SIXTH: I direct that no bond or surety shall be required of any guardian, trustee,
executor, administrator or fiduciary named herein.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto subscribed my name, and
acknowledge and publish this instrument as my Last Will in the presence of the
undersigned witnesses, on this �day of �Ir�/�,�ti , 2005.
