LAST WILL AND TESTAIUD1T
-1
OJ'
MARY c. KEYSER
I, MARY C. KEYSER, of Ambler, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania,
do hereby make and declare this to be my Last will and Testament and
hereby revoke all wills and Codicils heretofore made by me.
FIRST:
I direct that all of my just debts, and the expenses of
my funeral and last illness, be paid from my general estate as part
of the cost of the administration as soon after my decease as
practical.
SECOND:
I direct that all taxes that may be assessed in
consequence of my death, of whatever nature and by whatever
, jurisdiction imposed, shall be paid from my residuary estate as part
of the expenses of the administration of my estate, without
apportionment or right of reimbursement.
THIRD:
I give and bequeath to my Husband, J. LAWRENCE KEYSER,
JR., all of my tangible personal property, including any household
goods, furnishings and personal effects, and any automobiles, together
with all policies of insurance thereon, provided my said Husband is
living at my death. If my said Husband does not survive me, I give
such property to my children living at the time of my death to be
divided among them as they may agree. In the event that no agreement
is reached on certain items or certain items are not wanted, those

items shall be sold and the proceeds distributed as part of my
residuary estate.
In the event that my Husband does not survive me, I direct
that any home that I may own at the time of my death be sold and
become part of my residuary estate.
FOURTH: All the rest, residue and remainder of my estate, real,
personal and mixed, of whatsoever kind and wheresoever situate, I
give, devise and bequeath to my Husband, J. LAWRENCE KEYSER, JR.,
absolutely.

I give, devise and bequeath the residue of my estate in equal shares
to my children, MARJORIE K. STRAYER, ALAN C. KEYSER, and BRUCE G.
KEYSER.
In the event that anyone of the aforesaid beneficiaries
shall predecease me, then that share shall be divided into equal
shares among his or her then living spouse, if not remarried, and his
or her then living issue, per stirpes. If the spouse of such deceased
child has remarried, then that share shall lapse and be divided among
the living issue of such deceased child, per stirpes.
SIXTH:
Any share of my estate, income or principal, which
becomes distributable to a minor shall be held IN TRUST by his or her
then living parent, as TRUSTEE during minority.
My Trustee is
authorized to retain, invest and reinvest in any form of property
without restriction to legal investments, and to apply such amount of
income and principal as my Trustee, in its sole discretion, deems
proper for the support, education and welfare of such minor and shall
2

accumulate any unexpended balance of income.
Such amounts may be
applied directly or may be paid to the person with whom such minor
resides or who has the care or control of such minor, without the
interrvention of a guardian.
SEVENTH:
I nominate, constitute and appoint my Husband, J.
LAWRENCE KEYSER, JR., Executor of this, my Last will and Testament.

for any reason, then I appoint my children, MARJORIE K. STRAYER, ALAN

Executors.
I direct that no fiduciary acting under this, my Will,
whether or not named herein, shall be required to post bond or furnish
security in any jurisdiction in which the said fiduciaries may act.
Any reference to my fiduciaries, whether executors or
trustees, shall refer to those from time to time who are acting as
such, whether stated in the masculine or feminine gender, or whether
stated in the singular or plural.
