c~:r
(:~
Cumberland and Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, being of sound and
disposing mind, memory and understanding, do make, publish and
declare this as and for my Last Will and Testament, hereby
revoking and making void all former wills and codicils by me at
any time heretofore made.
FIRST. I order and direct that all my just debts and
funeral expenses be paid by my Executrix, hereinafter named, as
soon as conveniently may be done after my decease.
SECOND. I give, devise and bequeath all the rest, residue
.--' and remainder of my Estate, real, personal and mixed, whatsoever
{H
LAW OFFICES
SNE1.8AKER
'"
BRENNEMAN
and wheresoever situated unto my wife, JEANNE C. KENT, absolutely
and in fee simple, if she survives me by as many as sixty (60)
days.
THIRD. If my wife, JEANNE C. KENT, does not survive me by
as many as sixty (60) days, then and in that event, I give,
devise and bequeath all the rest, residue and remainder of my
Estate, real, personal and mixed, whatsoever and wheresoever
situated, in equal shares unto my seven children, namely,
JACQUELINE ANN KELLY, JULIA MARIE HARDENSTINE, SUSAN RITA KENT,
DUANE FRANCIS KENT, GLENN PAUL KENT, EDWARD NEAL KENT and NANCY
JEAN KENT, share and share alike, absolutely and in fee simple.
If any of my said children should predecease me, I
order and direct that the foregoing share of my estate
attributable to such deceased child shall be distributed among
his or her lawful iss'.ie per stirpes by representation and not per
capita, subject, however, to the protective trust provisions as
contained in Item Fourth hereinbelow with respect to any
beneficiary who has not attained the age of twenty-three (23)

,
years at the time for distribution.
FOURTH. If any beneficiary hereinabove has not attained the
age of twenty-three (23) years at the time of distribution, I
order and direct that the distributive share of such person shall
be paid over and delivered unto PNC BANK, NATIONAL ASSOCIATION,
(or its successor by merger, consolidation or other corporate
reorganization) as my testamentary Trustee, IN TRUST,
NEVERTHELESS, to hold, manage, invest, accumulate income and
reinvest until said beneficiary attains the age of twenty-three
(23) years, at which time said trust shall be terminated and the
net proceeds thereof be paid over to the beneficiary absolutely.
I authorize and empower my said Trustee to invest the
assets of said trust in any reasonable manner and not be limited
or restricted to so-called "legal" or statutory investments for
fiduciaries.
I designate any trust hereunder to be a spend-thrift
trust. The beneficiary shall have no right to invade, pledge,
assign or otherwise dispose of the assets of said trust
(including income) nor shall any creditor of a beneficiary have
any right to seize, levy or execute upon said assets by reason of
any pledge, assignment or other transfer, voluntarily or
involuntarily, made by said beneficiary.
I further authorize and empower my said Trustee to use,
consume, expend and apply from time to time such amounts of
principal and income of and from said trust which in the exercise
of its sole discretion shall be determined to be reasonable and
necessary for the beneficiary's education. The term "education"
shall be construed and interpreted to mean college or other post-
highschool training which is intended to improve the
beneficiary's productivity as an adult or enhance the quality of
his or her life. In considering what is reasonable and
necessary, my said Trustee shall take into consideration the
-2-
-
primary responsibility of the beneficiary's surviving parent to
provide such education. It is my will and intention that the
foregoing discretionary provision for education shall be
supplementary to the parent's primary responsibility.
LASTLY. I nominate, constitute and appoint my wife, JEANNE
C. KENT, to be the Executrix of this, my Last will and Testament,
but if for any reason she should fail to qualify as such
Executrix or cease so to serve, then and in that event, I
nominate, constitute and appoint my daughter, namely, JACQUELINE
ANN KELLY, to be the Executrix hereof. If both of the above
named persons should fail to qualify as my personal
representative hereunder or cease so to serve, then and in that
ultimate event, I nominate, constitute and appoint my daughter,
namely, JULIA MARIE HARDENSTINE, to be the Executrix of this, my
Last will and Testament. I order and direct that none of the
above named persons shall be required to post bond or other
security as a condition of qualification as my personal
representative hereunder.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I, DUANE P. KENT, have hereunto set
my hand and seal to this, my Last will and Testament which
consists of three (3) typewritten pages to each of which I have
affixed my signature this ~-,K
day of MAY
