hereby make, publish and declare this to be my Last Will and Testament, hereby

SECOND: All of the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, of
whatsoever kind and nature, real, personal or mixed, and wheresoever situate,

time of death, I give, bequeath and devise to my husband, ALEXANDER A. LENDA,
absolutely and forever.
THIRD: In the event that my said husband, ALEXANDER A. LENDA, shall
predecease me, or in the further event that we shall die simultaneously, I
give, bequeath and devise all of the rest, residue and remainder of my estate
in equal shares to my children surviving me or to the issue, per stirpes, of
any child of mine who fails to survive me leaving issue surviving.
FOURTH: I do hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my said husband,
ALEXANDER A. LENDA, as the Executor of this my Last Will and Testament. I

upon such terms and conditions, as he may see fit, any and all real estate and
personal property of any kind wheresoever situated, at any time forming part
of my estate, and to execute and deliver good and sufficient deeds and any
other instruments that may be necessary therefor and to distribute the
