DAVID W. DUERR c-��% -° n
� :__, �;..
C�?�:::, � ,--_ r�'�t
I, David W. Duerr, a resident of the County of Cumberland, Commonwealth of Pen�sylvania�ein�" --��,
at least eighteen (18) years old and of sound mind, willfully and voluntarily do make and declare�His to
be my Last Will Testament, and I revoke all my prior Wills and Codicils.
FIRST: Declaration Concerning Family. I declare that I am married and that my wife's name is
Genevieve K. Duerr. My Wife and I have five (5) children: Dawn K. Rutkowski, Duane D.
Duerr, Roxanne L. Lange, Lisa H. Weary, and Eric D. Duerr.
SFCO�D: Nomination and Appointment of Personal Representative. I hereby nominate and appoint
���.a�e��ic��e 1�;:. Du.�rr to be my Personal Representative hereunder, to serve without bond. Furthermore,
I request unsupervised administration of my estate. In the event Genevieve K. Duerr fails to become
or at any time ceases to be the duly appointed and acting Personal Representative hereunder, I
nosnina±e Duane D. Duerr as Personal Representative. If Duane D. Duerr is unable or unwilling to
serve, then I nominate Roxanne L. Lange to serve without bond. If Roxanne L. Lange is unable or
unwilling to serve, then I nominate Lisa H. Weary to serve without bond. The term "Personal
Representative" as used herein shall apply regardless of gender.
THIRD: Last Illness and Funeral Expenses; Powers of Personal Representative. I direct my Personal
Representative to pay my last illness and funeral expenses. I authorize my Personal Representative to
receive and retain any of my property; to sell, at public or private sale, encumber or lease any property
� of my estate without notice, at such prices and upon such terms as he deems best, and without the
giving of any bond, subject, however, to such confirmation as may be required by law; to hold, manage
and operate such property; to continue the operation of any business of my estate, alone or in
pa:-tnership with others, for such times and in such manner as deemed advisable, or to sell or liquidate
such business, and any such operation, sale or liquidation shall be at the risk of my estate and without
liability on my Personal Representative for any losses resulting therefrom; to invest and reinvest
s�rs-plus moneys in such investlnents as he deems advisable; to determine what is principal and what is
ii�co3r�e of iny estate and to allocate and charge to either principal or income any debts, taxes and
expenses of adininistration.
FOURTH: Disposition of All Property; Exercise of Power of Appointment. It is my intention by this
Will to dispose of my property, if any. I do not intend hereby to exercise any power of appointment
that I may have arising from that Trust Agreement described in Paragraph SIXTH.
FIFTH: Disposition of Personal Effects. Except as provided in any written instructions to my Personal
. Representative regarding the disposition of personal effects, I give any interest I may have in all
personal automobiles, clothing,jewelry, china, silver,books, pictures and other works of art,household
furniture and furnishings and all other items of domestic, household or personal use to my wife, if she
survives me. If my wife fails to so survive me, I give such property to the Trustee of that Trust
Agreement described in Paragaph SIXTH. The bequests made by this paragraph shall be free and clear
of estate and inheritance taxes, which I direct my Personal Representative to charge against the residue
of my estate. �
�
� SIXTH: Disposition of Residue of Estate.
(1) All the rest, residue and remainder of my estate,both real and personal and of whatever kind and
wherever situated, including all of my property, if any, I give, devise and bequeath to the individual or
bank then acting as Trustee under that certain trust Agreement designated as The David W.Duerr and
Genevieve K. Duerr Revocable Living Trust, signed earlier this day and bearing the same date as
this Will, of which my wife and I are the Co-Grantors and the Co-Trustees, to be combined with the
other assets of the trust and held, administered and distributed as a part of that trust, according to the
terms thereof and any amendments made to it prior to my death. It is my intent, if it be permissible, not
to create a separate trust by this Will and not to subject The David W. Duerr and Genevieve K.
Duerr Revocable Living Trust or the property added to it by this Subparagraph (1) to the jurisdiction
of the probate court. Should I be the Surviving Spouse, as defined by such Agreement, the distributions
under paragraph SIXTH shall be to trust A only.
(2) If for any reason the disposition in Subparagraph (1) is not operative or is invalid, or if the trust
referred to in Subparagraph (1) fails or has been revoked, then I give the rest, residue and remainder of
my estate, to the individual or bank which would have been Trustee of such trust had such trust been
operative, valid and unrevoked at my death, to be held, administered and distributed under the terms
and conditioris of The David W. Duerr and Genevieve K. Duerr Revocable Living Trust, signed
and dated the same day and bearing the same date as this Will, which trust is incorporated herein by
reference.
(3) Anything else herein to the contrary notwithstanding, should any portion of such trust be
terminable upon my death, the disposition made in this Paragraph SIXTH shall be made directly to the
beneficiaries for whom the outright distribution from the trust shall be made, and the remainder which
will remain in such trust, if any, shall pass into such trust under the provisions of Paragraph SIXTH (1)
�` or(2), as the case may be.
��
(4) Should the Trustee of that trust described in Paragraph SIXTH (1) and (2) elect not to pay any or
all of the estate, gift or inheritance taxes from such trust, then, to the extent they are not so paid, all
taxes levied by the United States or any state, district, territory or possession thereof upon or because of
any property passing under this Will or any Codicil thereto or by reason of any transfer or gi$made by
me during my lifetiine or at my death, or which may be imposed by reason of my death, or the
acquisition of property by any person upon my death by succession, inheritance, survivorship or
otherwise, shall be paid out of the residue of my estate as an expense of administration. My Personal
Representative is authorized to accept any distributions from the Trustee of that trust described in
Paragraph SIXTH (1)or(2) for purpose of such payment.
SEVENTH: Omitted Heirs; Will Contests. Except as otherwise specified in this Will, I have
intentionally and with full knowledge omitted to provide for my heirs at the time of my death. If any
beneficiary under this Will or heir at law of mine or person claiming through any of them shall contest
or otherwise challenge the validity of this Will or attack any of its provisions or the trust described in
Paragraph SIXTH herein, directly or indirectly, any share or interest in my estate given to such person
under this Will is hereby revoked, and such share or interest shall be distributed in the same manner
provided herein as if such person had predeceased me.
EIGHTH: Partial Invalidity. Should any part, clause, provision or condition of this Will be held to be
void, invalid or inoperative, then I direct that such invalidity shall not affect any other provision hereof,
which shall be effective as though such invalid provisions had not been made.
�
. �.�...,�,�b.�:� -�-,�==� ��
, ,
� NINTH: Guardians. In the event my wife fails to survive me, I hereby nominate and direct that Duane
D. Duerr be appointed as guardian of the persons and estates of my minor or adult disabled children.
If for any reason Duane D. Duerr is unable or unwilling to act as such, I nominate Roxanne L. Lange
as guardian of the persons and estates of my minor or adult disabled children. I direct that said
guardian shall serve without being required to furnish bonds of any kind.
IN TESTIMONY WHEREOF, I have subscribed my name to this my Last Will and Testament,
consisting of three (3) typewritten pages, including this page, all in the presence of the persons
witnessing it at my request on this��day of�'�(�Q��, 2004, at Carlisle,Pennsylvania.
