LAST WILL AND TEST AMENT
OF
DONNA M. BAKER
I, Donna M. Baker, of the Borough of Carlisle, (645 Hamilton Street), Cumberland
County, Pennsylv~ia, being of sou?d and disposing mind,.memory and understandin~, do?,;

making vOId any and all WIlls and Codicils heretofore made. ' . "".
,,,.,,)
I. I direct the payment of my just debts and funeral expenses as soon after my de~th as
may be convenient. " " .
. 2. I ~eclare that I am now unmarried and that I have two (2) children by a prior ~,';
marnage, to WIt: Edward James Baker, a son born May 9, 1958 who resides at 741 Conodoquinet
Avenue, Carlisle, PA 17013; and Virginia Suzanne Baker, a daughter born January 4, 1968 who
resides with me. I have no deceased children nor any other children living by my [husband/wife]
or otherwise.
3. All 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 two equal shares, per stirpes
and not per capita, one unto each of my children. The share of any child of mine who predeceases
me leaving issue who survive me shall pass to such issue, per stirpes, by right of representation.
4. I hereby nominate, constitute and appoint my said two children, or the successor or
survivor or them, as Co-Executors (or as Executor, as the case may be) of this my Last Will and
Testament I further direct that no bond or other security shall be required of any Executor or
Executrix appointed in this Will for the performance of his, her or its duties in any jurisdiction in
which he, she or it may be called upon to act.
5. In addition to, and not in limitation of, the powers conferred by law or by other
provisions of this Will, my Co-Executors shall have the following powers, each of which may be
exercised from time to time by my Co-Executors in their sole discretion:
(a) To retain in the form received, and to sell either at public or private sale, or to
distribute in kind, any real or personal property.
(b) To manage both real and personal property.
(c) To invest and reinvest in all forms of property, notwithstanding the fact that
any or all of the investments made are of a character or size which but for this
expressed authority would not be considered proper for an Executor.
(d) To exercise any option or rights arising from the ownership of investments.
(e) To compromise claims without court approval and without the consent of any
beneficiary.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I have hereunto set my hand and seal to this my Last Will
and Testament, written on one (1) P:!/ie, this 11TH- day of February, 1993.
