I, Gerald J. Reber, a resident of the Commonwealth of Pe�'iTnsylvani�nal(A,,,,c+ry
publish and declare this to be my Last Will and Testament, revoking all wills and codicils at any
time heretofore made by me.
FIRST: I direct that the expenses of my last illness and funeral, the expenses of
the administration of my estate, and all estate, inheritance and similar taxes payable with respect
to property included in my estate, whether or not passing under this will, and any interest or
penalties thereon, shall be paid out of my residuary estate, without apportionment and with no
right of reimbursement from any recipient of any such property.
SECOND: I give all tangible personal property owned by me at the time of my
death, including without limitation personal effects, clothing, jewelry, furniture, furnishings,
household goods, automobiles and other vehicles, together with all insurance policies relating
thereto, to those of my children Susan C. Sheipe and Debra K. Soprano who survive me, in
substantially equal shares, to be divided between them as they shall agree, or if they cannot
agree, as my Executor shall determine.
THIRD: I give all the rest, residue and remainder of my property and estate, both
real and personal, of whatever kind and wherever located, that I own or to which I shall be in any
manner entitled at the time of my death (collectively referred to as my "residuary estate"), as
follows:
(a) To those of my children who survive me per capita.
(b) If no child of mine survives me, I give my residuary estate to those who
would take from me as if I were then to die without a will, unmarried and the
absolute owner of my residuary estate, and a resident of the Commonwealth of
Pennsylvania.
FOURTH: If any property of my estate vests in absolute ownership in a minor or
incompetent, my Executor, at any time and without court authorization, may: distribute the
whole or any part of such property to the beneficiary; or use the whole or any part for the health,
education, maintenance and support of the beneficiary; or distribute the whole or any part to a
guardian, committee or other legal representative of the beneficiary, or to a custodian for the
beneficiary under any gifts to minors or transfers to minors act, or to the person or persons with
whom the beneficiary resides. Evidence of any such distribution or the receipt therefor executed
by the person to whom the distribution is made shall be a full discharge of my Executor from any
liability with respect thereto, even though my Executor may be such person. If such beneficiary
� ��
,zlZl ����
is a minor, my Executor may defer the distribution of the whole or any part of such property until
the beneficiary attains the age of twenty-one (21) years, and may hold the same as a separate
fund for the beneficiary with all of the powers described in Article SIXTH hereof. If the ben-
eficiary dies before attaining said age, any balance shall be paid and distributed to the estate of
the beneficiary.
FIFTH: I appoint Susan C. Sheipe to be my Executor. If Susan C. Sheipe shall
fail to qualify for any reason as my Executor, or having qualified shall die, resign or cease to act
for any reason as my Executor, I appoint Debra K. Soprano as my Executor. I direct that no
Executor shall be required to file or furnish any bond, surety or other security in any jurisdiction.
5IXTH: I grant to my Executor all powers conferred on executors under the
Pennsylvania Probate, Estates and Fiduciaries Code, as amended, or any successor thereto, and
all powers conferred upon executors wherever my Executor may act. I also grant to my Executor
power to retain, sell at public or private sale, exchange, grant options on, invest and reinvest, and
otherwise deal with any kind of property, real or personal, for cash or on credit; to borrow money
and encumber or pledge any property to secure loans; to exercise all powers of an absolute owner
of property; to compromise and release claims with or without consideration; and to employ
attorneys, accountants and other persons for services or advice. The term "Executor" wherever
used herein shall mean the executors, executor, executrix or administrator in office from time to
time.
SEVENTH: I direct that for purposes of this will a beneficiary shall be deemed
to predecease me unless such beneficiary survives me by more than thirty days.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, I, Gerald J. Reber, sign my name and publish and
declare this instrument as my last will and testament this lOth day of July, 2005.
