LAST WILL AND TESTAMENT
OF
PATRICIA A. ROBINSON
. I, PATRICIA A. ROBINSON, widow, of Lot 165 Shippensburg Mobile Estates,
Shlppensburg, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, being of sound and disposing mind, memory,
and understanding, do hereby make, publish, and declare this as and for my Last Will and
Testament, hereby revoking and making void any and all Wills by me at any time heretofore made.
1. I direct my hereinafter named Executor to pay all of my debts to which I am bound and
the expenses of my funeral, last illness, and of the administration of my estate as soon after my
death u:; may he L)und convenient todo ~a.
2. I declare that at the time of the writing of this my Last Will and Testament, I am a widow.
I further declare that I have one (1) child by my marriage to Kenneth E. Robinson, who is Scott J.
Robinson. I further declare that I have no other children.
3. I give and bequeath the following items of personal property:
a. To my grandson, Scott Tyler Robinson, my first engagement ring and
wedding band which is located in my safe deposit box at F & M Bank.

located in my safe deposit box at F & M Bank.
c. To my granddaughter, Shenelle Patricia Robinson, all of my other jewelry,
including my 25th wedding anniversary diamond wrap-a-round ring.
Should any of the above mentioned persons predecease me or fail to survive me by a period of
ninety (90) days, then the bequest to that person shall lapse and be added to the remainder of my
estate. Should any of the above mentioned persons be under the age of twenty-one years (21) of
age, then I authorize my hereinafter named Executor, to hold said above mentioned items in Trust,
pursuant to paragraph 6 below, until that person attains the age of twenty-one (21) years.

added to the remaining share or shares per stirpes. At the present time I have three (3)
grandchildren, Scott Tyler Robinson, Spencer Brian Robinson and Shenelle Patricia Robinson. I
have intentionally made no provision for my son, Scott J. Robinson, for the reason that my son has
been adequately provided for during my lifetime and it is my desire to provide for my
grandchildren.
6. Should any person less than twenty-one (21) years of age be entitled to a distribution
from my estate, in such event the share that person would otherwise have received shall be paid to
my hereinafter named Executor in trust. I authorize the herein named Trustee to receive and invest
